VVo have unintentionally ornilt ed noticing the
■first appearance ul this new corps in our stria Is on
Tuesday last. Notwithstanding the corps was not
in full uniform, tho inclement stale ol the weather,
and the melancholy occasion, (the burial of a
brother member,) yet the number and discipline
wo have never seen equalled in the getting itpol a
new company. The whole rcllocls great credit
upon each member, upon each ot tic oliieers, and
more especially upon tho spirited Captain. Me
hesitate not to predict that tho Clinch Rillemen
will never disgrace tho name they have assumed.

the Trustees of the College of Charleston,
taking into consideration, (he alarming 1 pro
gress of the fever that now prevails in that ci -

suspend the exercises of that institution.
The gentlemen who compose the laculiy, and
also several of the students, arc strangers to the
climate, and are therefore more or less exposed
lo the dise,asc, The vacation commenced on the

October, when the exercises of tho institution
will ho resumed.
The first halo of new Cotton was received in
Columbus,on tho 23d, from the plantation ol
Col. John Woolfolk, of Muscogee county. It
was sold at auction, price not ascertained.
The New York Ga/e.llc ol the 2 lth, says—
A now Tieasury Circular has been received hy
the Collector, ordering the exaction ol heavy du -
ties on goods that have heretofore been admitted

it is published, which will be in a few days; in
the meantime it is slated that silks from Europe
are subject to a duly of 25 per cent, according to
a new construction of the compromise act hy the
Comptroller, and that mcrinoes are also subject
to duly'.
Tho Express oftho £;Tth stairs that the 1 ’ocular
has been in part revoked, and that the duties are to

I Important IVom tin- Western Frontier—

The «t. Louis Republican of the I lilj instant,
i | stairs that an important despatch lias been f.r
-1 Warded by Major Mason of Port (iibson, to (ion.
I 1 (iaines, of the .Southern Division. Tho substance
lof this communication is, il,„i || lC (Jherokces
have built n council house, which is said to be
- considerably larger than any heretofore erected
| by any tribe of Indians. They have sent mcsi
sengers, with the black and red wampum, to all
tlie tribes ironr the Red ffiver to the tSaes and
boxes on the Mississippi—omitting only tin*
Kansas and Usages—inviting them to meet in
j council at ( lu* Cherokee Council House in Sep*
; tom her next. The movement is believed to be
but an incipient step to further difficulties, and
: made with a view of enlisting and uniting ail the
! tribes along the frontier in such measures us may
be adoptr d.
| They have proceeded with great caution and
I secrecy in the measure, and have endeavored to
keep all their proceedings from the knowledge ol
their agents and ot the officers of the post. The
lime fixed lor holding the council is sufficiently
late to admit ol the emigrating (ffierokees reaching
their country. All the informa'ion elicited goes
to confirm the opinion expressed some lime ago,
by General Arbnekle, ol the intentions of several
; of the tribes, though it is not believed that anv
j movement is intended by them until-tho opening
! of spring.
j Gencial Gaines, It Is added, Iras forwarded the
despatch ot Major Mason to the proper depart'
moot, with a request dial Ini may be permitted to
attend lire council with an armed force. This
would probably lie the most effectual means to
awe them into a compliance with their duly,
and would eHectuidly prevent the formation of
any plans for a general and untied rising. It is
greatly to be desired that bis request should be
granted.

local and not general in its hanelits. Wo

location of those persons who are to he blest
by this wise policy; Washington city is the
centre of attraction. There the oll'ice.holders,
like the locusts of Egypt, are fed, to the de
struction of the country about them. Then
come the thousands of mechanics employed

,0 • .no North consumes tier own nnuiu-
W-Anres, and pays therefore, little or nu tariff
(or inipoilatinos ; the (South consumes the
importations of the North, ami consequently
pays all the expenses of the specie currency.
We pay all, and get lint little. It is a nolo
rious fact, that the Eolith pays more than her
proportion of the taxes, derived from the tariff,
at least three-fourths. Wore they propor
tioned according to representation, the .Smith
pays three times her share. Now let os look
to one hem of expenditure, nod see how little,
and in what great disproportion she receives
those tuxes hack. Take the item of pension
ers for example. We rotor to the statement,
under lbe old law; the disproportion is increa
sed under the new Law we quote from l e po
litical tracts of South Carolina lor 1832.
Georgia has nine representatives; Vermont
has hut live; Georgia received sff,(iOO in pen
sions; Vermont received •‘fj) 105,1)84 in pen
sions; Georgia pays more by threefold than
Vermont, an* yet Vermont receives ton limes
as much as Georgia ! This shows that. Mr.
Van Duren is legislating for the North and
against the (South; that he is furnishing them
with a hotter currency, than lie is providing
us; that ho is faxing ua, to procure it for the
North; that though lie professes to give to ns
the same he gives the North, yet from I lie dif
ference in our conditions, that professed equal
ity, is in truth nothing hut the greatest ot ine
quality; ought the Kouth to consent to adopt
such a nefarious scheme '! No ; we repeat no,
never.
We object also to the scheme, because
it is in effect, an increase of the'farin'. Jl
the currency which the Government receives
in payment of its dues, is above par value,
just so much as it is above par, is the Tariff in
creased. Take an example ; An importer
pavs for instance, a duty upon his goods ol
thirty-live per cent; if be is permitted to pay in
good current bank bills, which can lie had at
par. lie will do so, and those to whom be sells
pav him back the duty be has paid ; but if to
pay those duties, be must give live percent
lor specie, he not only pays the government
duly, hut tiie additional five per cent for the
money, with which to pay' the duly. Now,
1 it matters nothing to the South, whether the
1 Tariff is increased 5 per cent, or the value ot
■ specie is 5 per cent: we pay out the same in
• either event, so that widi os, the Tariff’ is in.
creased so much. Dot if ihe Government
should receive good Dank bills, fur her ollice
-1 holders, and the large number of people it
feeds at the North, such as the people receive,
this additional Tariff will not be levied on us.
We object to the Sub-Treasury, because if
■ adopted, no further hope need lie entertained,
that the Tariff' will ever be reduced any lower,
1 nor need we hope that it will not be increas
• ed.
• The North and East will advocate the Sub
• Treasury, because it brings among them more
• money, and because they are paid in a more
valuable currency for their labor, and they
will advocate the continuance of the Tariff,
because it will keep up the amount of money
, to be distributed under the Sub-Treasury
. among them, in gold and silver, and they will
. advocate an increase of the Tariff , for as that
, increases, so will the number ofrecipien's
j among them increase also. The truth is, the
i Sub-Treasury is but a hand-maid of the far.
, ill'. It is designed to foster and sustain it, In

I ask, what. Justification is there in putting
under the control of Van Bimm, a scheme
which is “disorganizing and revolutionary,”
“subversive ol the principles ol the govern
mem,’ which puts the custody of the public
money ‘nearer’ the President than now, where
it might be “plundered by a hnmlr d hands,
where one cannot now touch it,” which puts
the peoples money in the ‘palms ol‘fho Presi
dent’.’ friends, to ‘enlarge lus power,* and
provide tin? ‘means ot corruption.* what man
on earth save Van Huron would have the ‘im
pudencu to ask so much.’
What are the beneiiis promised to result
from the Huh Treasury/
| We are told hy tin* Union party, that the
| public money will he kept more ’safely, and
not be squandered by Hie Banks. Why will
it be mere saiely kept ; because it will bo m
the custody ol a single individual. But can
I any one believe, that there is more honesty m
one Sub- Treasurer than in a dozen Hank D -
reciors ! Look into your own neigi borhooj,
and set; if you can put your linger on one man
who is likeiy to bo made a Sub- I’reusiiror, who
has more honesty than all the Directors in the
Hank near yon. What would be true of one
community, will mod likely he true ol all.
Il the Banks should make use ol the public
deposited, they will sooner or inter ho receiv
ed back, because the hanks loaned *‘,,o money
out. lor good paper, and Mp. assets oft he Bank,
notes, stock, iN. o. are all subject to pay this
deposite, and in many ol the Hanks, the per.
son and property of the stockholders, are
likewise liable. Hut should a Sub-Treasurer
make n-e of the Deposit.es, what becomes of
l-he f .iOvermncnt ! Its fate is told in the case
ol Littlebury Hawkins, a. Sub-Treasurer at
Galena, Arkansas, who gave a bond in I he sum
ol $120.000; received, and ran away with
$10.) 000 ol the public money; comparing
these fads, we should tldnlc the Deposito of
the public money in Hanks, to he a safer sys
tem than putting it in the hands of one man.
It is said that the banks should not he permit
ted to hank upon the people’s money. This is
a honied phrase, which demagogue* delight to
use, hut is it not in ended to play upon populai
ptejudico. Why is it, that the hanks have ever
been pci milled to so the public Doposiles 1—
Because the Government has lo transfer its funds
from one part of the Union lo anoiher. This
costs upon an average, something like (wo per
cent, upon the amount to he transferred ; lo
avoid tins loss, Ihe Government says to the hanks,
we will give! you the use. of our Deposited, so
long as they remain with you, if you will make,
I hose transfers. This is the reason why the banks
have ever used the public, de‘poshes; ordinarily,
no bank could e.ll’ord to make these transfers, for
the consideration mentioned, but recently, they
were enabled to do so, because of tile large sur
plus which had accumulated in the 'Treasury,
and which probably will never happen again.-
This dung then, of the hanks using ;ho people’s
money, alter all,.seems to turn out, as much for
dm interest of the people themselves, as the hanks;
hut may not the banks got the use of the peo
ple’s money, as much under the Sub-Treasury
scheme, as without it, and that too, without pay,
ing any thing for its use ? Large appropriations
arc fje<juently made by Congress, and their pay.
met l l withheld for some lime, from various causes.
What would hinder a tSuh-Treasurer from fend
ing the money then, or oven without such a eon.
tingency, to Home favored hanks, which will
pledge lo use them beneficially in an approach
ing election, and for the use ol the party ! Noth
ing. Detection is beyond the probability of
occurring ; and then the faithful >vear for each
other; stifle as in the Host Office
Department, and swear all is tight, until the de
linquent. plays the part of Lidehcrry Hawkins,
arid Hies his country ! Look lo dm‘many efforts
made in Congress to feiret. out delimiters, and
how ‘the party’ prevent it] It is a startling
fact, that there are now of open defaulters to the
government, (besides other defaulters, whose dc
licieucies are not yet fully ascertained, who are
♦Sub-Treasurers to the Government,) of laud
office* $ 1,950,000, and nl custom, house officers,
$1,427,41 (); making *3,277.410!!! Is not
this giving safely to the people’s money with a
vengeance I Contrasted with this, the Govern
ment has lost by depositing iis money in the
hanks, only $1,700,000! If experiment is
worth any thing, it is tufaiird the Hub-Treasury. !
it is said that it will restrict the. issues of the
banks, and we arc likewise told, that inasmuch
•as the .Sub-Treasury will not regulate exchange,
• it is because, trade alone cun do it. If this cardi
nal principle of the Union party he true, then
(ho scheme will no more, restrict the eiicuhilion
of die hanks, than the. difference in exchange
would. When the precious currency hat* been
form hod for the office-holders, tlie banks will
make such issues, ns will bo subjected to attack
by a well regulated system el exchange, only.
■ If their circulation is lo be controlled by specie
payments, they will furnish exchange, which
would bo more valuable, and thus save their spe.
cic when demanded ; it exchange is 100 high and
more valuable, they will dispo-e of their specie;
hence the circulation being controlled by ex
change, the chock on that circulation, is ex
change, and not specie payments: the check
then exists without tin* Sub Treasury’s influence.
The only effect which the system would have
upon hank circulation, would he to incie.i.-c hank
capital, either in the shape of new 'tanks, or ol
i an exii nsion of old capital, with ies.» specie To
its basis.
• There is hut one safe, certain and harmless
