Washing-.,, winch was immediately after the American lb-volution. In that of the elder Adams high juices w ere main tained. In the eight years ol Mr. Je.llomou s term, prices were very uniform at moderate rates. Under Mr. Madison’s administration, and at a pe riod of Peaee and War, prices were high and fluctuated. Under Mr. Monroe’s, Adams, and Jackson’s, embracing a period of twenty years, prices ruled at least two dollars below the previous twenty years. The following table exhibits the receipts nf b lour down the North River, for the last two years— not including the I isl three months of the present year.

It is calculated that the amount of Bread »m (Is wanted for the Eastern Slates will lies nsildy diminished. The demand from the Wool Imli s and South America will, in consequence of the sh irt supplies in Europe, fully make up any short demand from other quarters. Onr article it will be seen, is principally composed of Western supplies by the canal. It is very difli cull. in fact imp issilde, to make up any correct table of the supplies Irom the miles on the North River. From the South or from New Orleans, as the best 1 crit-rion of these supplies we give the following UiMc. As the flour consumed in the eity i, not required to be inspected, this may 1 e added to the table. The city consumption iseompulcd at 1000 | bids per day, v.hich for 365 days is 365 000. | The following is the in -pucli m of Flour forlhe last sixteen ye irs: 1822 331.070 1830 767,387 1823 409.016 1831 893,846 1824 434 788 1832 998,167 1825 459,113 18.3 1.003,440 18:6 520 577 1834 1,250,703 1827 697.648 1835 1.154 613 1828 695,900 1816 1.133 554 1829 080,696 1837 *914.483 • From 9th May. 1837, to Ist January, 1838. The above table shows that there has been no increase of Flour since 1831 ; and establishes the fn ’I, that the crops during these years have been sho u The operations in Flour in this city are immense, being over a million and a halt barre.s, which at eight dollars will amount to twelve millions ot ilol lars. We propose to give the genera! course ol this f ide and the manner of doing business with the Wc t. The principal mills are at Rochester, and have inc-ea-ed loan astonishing extent; not only at Hi. In sier tail at Black R >ck, Oswego, Seneca Falls, and at various other places. Men of large capitals are embarked in the business. New Vork w.ll h formerly supplied all or ueady all the wheat w .nufaeturers, now only supplies her quoin. Ohii, Pennsylvania and Michigan furnish a very Urge portion ot the wheal that is maiitilat tureil,— The qil iiitily r'reived til's season will be over a million barrels. To purchase wheat lor ibis great quantity require* a vast capital, greater llian even tli ise engaged in the business, rich as they are, are enabled to supply. The purchase of wheat, the sale of the flour,’ and the raising of hinds, are therefore very important branches ol the business. The raising of funds is a-conipluhed mainly in this xva\. i’he .41 die s hrs* m.ccl their agent in . Now York with whom they make arrangements | for the raisin ;of money.

'in the New York merchant who eomes I, under* stipulation to accept drafts lor the sum I , agreed up u at tonally 60 or 90 days, and this be- | fore a bushel of wheal is purchased or a bum 1 of ' Hour ground.

Their hank notes are s received, with which the purchases of wheat an made 1 \ agents at diST rent points in New Vork, ( Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. The hunks arc hem li ed by the circulation of their bills. The ' miller obtains his wheat.—the canals, manufactu rers and commission merchants arc all benefited, an 1 the consumer is not injureii. ’l'lie commission merchants, who receive, this million barrels of Flour, are confined to a very few , not probably exceeding ten in number. They mu l necessarily be men ol goad i red.l and great means, as they are during the year under acceptances, one way or another, for eight or ten millions of dollars. ’Flu ir commissions on this large sum. calculated at nine millions, at two and a h ilt per cent, is two hundred *nd twenty-five thousand dollars. —a large sum for the millers to pay—and a liberal sum, but not too much lorthe merchant to receive for the h i/.ard he has to run—the advances he has made, and the services performed. We can form little or no calculation ourselves as to the prices of FI aur for the coming W inter.— It has been stated pretty g tonally in the papers in various parts of the country, that the 4\ heat crop his been large. It is now doubted whether these reports have not been exaggerated and it is much feared the crop has not been us great as was -.ntiei pated. Until within a very few f. 1 ■ have been so low, that many of the nuns ,e stood id!*' The quantity of wheat grown in New Eng land is greater than ever, and the crops of Corn and P ototoes in that section have been good. The supplies, therefore for that quarter wilt be less titan usual. This demand, however, must lie more than made up by increased supplies that will bo wanted far South America and the \Vest Indies—t large portion of which curniot be tumithcd. tie heretofore, i'rom England, and some portion of the Continent. Whether prices w ill advance or not, time must show. There is wc fear hut little prospect that those will fall much from present rates.

Ist, he says lam certainly un worthy ol respect or notice-,” still he, the mighty champion even of" the talented and polite 1 N'ardin,” takes n very public notice in twenty-seven lines 1 u' lislied in \ ear valuable paper, of my little squib of only six lines; and so far respects me, as to ea g'ge him three days and night; in writing a reply. A ••lily, I fear “Charity” was burnt by that little squib, and has gone od’ half cocked. 2d. He feels proud to know that lam ashamed to put my name to my eominunica’ion,” and yet he himself is not ns.i./ncdto suppress hi own even when writing for the mo t charitable onJ henceolent object; but imitates me by using a fictitious title. 3d. “ The Medical College suspended, and medical students who went there to study medicine, | left that city in the greatest haste to avoid the pes -1 tilence;” notwithstanding tins mighty tiering of the l regular I'octors from this ill-fated city, 11 C harity” , says one or more of the Professors in said I ob.eges I luue died, and society mourns the loss of many 1 medical men in C herle ton, of both parties,” Now what are the facts? Ist, Not a student goes to j Charleston to study medicine in the summer, for the Colleges are only in operation during Hu- winter. 2d. , Not a regular physician left Charleston during the i ! recent prevalence of yellow fever in that city, that • j has been noticed in one of the papers.

The talented and polite Nardin died either of yellow fever, of his own treatment, or of both combined: Charity may take which of the causes he pleases; hut from the hint furnished by the Mercury, we have drawn our own inference. It fficult and dangerous indu'd must hr the lad: rs any Steamer, prescribing tor his own or any other ease.

SQUASHY GHERKIN. Saturday Evening, Nov. 3. From our Correspondent. Washington, Oct. 30. The country may prepare to witness one of the most remarkable political somersets ever performed by “ the pvu i t” since it came into power. Every body knows tb t there has as yet boon no real se paration between Hank and State. Hut soon ‘the J) vorre" va il he firnialh/ abandoned. You have seen the circular of the Hay-Master General, announcing that Government had made arrange ments with the Bank of the United States, to pay drafts of the United St iles Treasurer, and the notes of that bank to he “moue convenient than specie.” It was designed by the Cabal nt Washington, that Ibis circular should he secret among the office-holders ; hut unfortunately a copy of it fell into the hands of one of that useful corps of Washington correspondents, and forthwith it came out to cover the ballled experimenters with confusion. Its nppe ■ nice has given groat trouble to the Globe clique. The official journal came outlast night with a long Jesuitical explanation, the amount of which stripped of the verbiage wherein it is buried, and of the uiur v .plihets characteristic of the kitchen rhetoricians amounts to this: The Government his been compelled by its necessities to supplicate the Pennsylvania Bank of the United Slates, to deposit funds at various points, where they may lie required, and bus there fore authorized the Bureaus to instruct thcirsevcrnl disbursing olliccrs to draw checks on the several distant hanks in which Mr. BrnniE, lias, in fact, placed funds for that purpose. Here then is the Bunk of the United States, the fiscal agent of the Government! and yet the Globe nfleets to he mightily indignant, because the Government is spoken of as having abandoned the altitude it re cently maintained in relation to Mr. Bmnt.E, and the Bank ! It is notorious to every body here that the communication between the departments and the hank, are now nearly as close and inti mate as when the National Bank was in existence, and before the depositea were removed. What change has taken place in the condition rs the bank, since the removal of the depositee, on the ground of alleged insecurity, to make it a more suitable depository of Government funds, and a more conven'enl fiscal agent now, than if was then P Will any heated partisan dare to assert that the Bank was less fitted to accomplish these purposes, under a National Charier, than it is un der tiro Charter given by a State Legislature I Those arc searching questions; and are calculated to expose the base, partisan spirit of the warfare carried on against tire United State Bank, by Gene ral Jackson, and those of his myrmidons who are now supplicating tire aid of the institution to re lieve them from embarrassment and distress. It is known to the whole country that the supe riority of specie over bank notes, was a favorite theme of the Loco Foeos. Now the Globe denies that it ever m lintaincd any such proposition. Tire clamor against bank paper has served its purpose. Some new means of operating on the public mind will be tried—some new experiment will ho made on prejudice and partisanship. The country will see all the doctrines of the administration about coin, ami paper, and bank credits, and hank agency abandoned otto by one. The Globe’s editorials will be a tissue of contradiction of its writings du ring the last few years. The Cabal will endeavor to make the people believe that they never were against the hanks—never said specie was more convenient than paper—never warred against credit and confidence. But the messages of their President, the reports of then - Secretaries, the speeches of their Senators in Congress and on the stump, the wi by-washy Cor.! -f Loeo-Foeo liter ature from th. ..mm.; of the Globe down to those of the .nuleston Mercury, will rise against these impudent denials, and when contrasted with the recent admissionand new professions, exhibit in a strong light, the infatuation, hypocrisy, and proved ineompetenry of the men in otuec. The attitude which Mr. Van Huron has been compelled to assume towards the United States Bank, is a triumph of principles, for which the Whigs and Conservatives have boon contending against Loeo-Focoism. The Government lias practically, and by circular, admitted that it cannot carry on its fiscal operations so conveniently ashy hunk agency. The sooner Mr. Van Buren makes up his mind to act uniformly on that admission, the sooner h» w 11 show more common sense than he lias ever yet exl it •1. From the Charleston Mercury, rs yesterday, Vi v. Yesterday morning about 1 o’clock, a fire broke out on the premises . f Messrs. Reynolds, Clark and Reynolds, Coach makers, Meeting-street, near the new Theatre. A wooden building at the back oftheir lot, used as a lumber depository , was first discovered on (ire. the wind being fresh me adjoining buildings, also of wood, soon caught, and communicating with a row ot sheds or workshops, all were quickly en veloped in flanii'*. f The work of destruction wont rapidl on, the ! store house, p..1 shot*. i*v i finishing department, '’T 'ther with the u.. ..ek range of Blacksmiths ...shops, successively shared the tale of the resi. At an early stage of the tire, a two and a ’ half story woouen house owned and •cunied b r Mr. John Stroheekcr, He Ibeck’s-aUey . ...,va r up, which effectually cheeked the danger in that i quarter. To our Firemen, too much praise cannot ; Lw awarded. for the untiring activity, skill and per- | I severance which they exhibited in subduing what ' • threatened to become an extensive conflagration, : and in saving a largo amount of property, which I but for extraordinary exertions, would inevitably I have been destroyed. The now Theatre, which so narrowly escaped j the great tire, was again in danger; the touch ot i fire may l>e seen about the windows, but the dam- I age is very small. Messrs. Reynolds, Clark fc Reynolds estimate their loss in stock, buildings, damaged work, &c. at {25,000—56,000 of which was insured—and Mr. Joint Strohecker slates the loss ot his house blown up at to $lO,OOO, and no insurance. Those who reside near the premises, confidently believe that the fire was caused by au incendiary, as no person slept in the yard, or remained there after dark, and none ever carried fire near lit" house where it originated. The police is now institu ting an examination of the case, and we await the result. For the Chronicle if Sentinel. To the State Slights’ Parly of Georgia. Accept the congratulation of a zealous sup porter of your cause on the present triumphant ascendancy of your principles. After a protrac ted struggle with the corruption of dishonest office scokci.s, and the delusion of their blinded and mis led followers, —patriotism is finally victorious! The recent election has been acknowledged, it is said, by a prominent Union man, to have been “the last effort of an expiring party.” Glory to heaven—descended liberty—Georgia is redeemed! It was when Andrew Jackson, issued h;s pro clamation, so palpably subversive of the principles which are the basis of our Union—when the voice of Jefferson was heard from the grave, and his disturbed spirit stalked in majesty over the land—that the State Rights’ banner was raised, and all who loved their country were bidden to rally under its folds for the protection of its liber ties. They came—the old and feeble, the young and vigorous, galhcrcd around the sacred exposi tion of the constitution which the sage of Monti ccllo left as a legacy' to the American nation, to res uo those pages of truth from the unhallowed gra p of the spoilsmen—but for u while it availed not. For ten years previous to that hour of trial Georgia had been agitated with two questions of vital importance to Iter prosperity and independence. A portion of her territory had been long withheld from her by the tardy justice of the General Jov ernment; and she was burthen- i with an onerous and unconstitutional tariff, beneath which her strength had almost been exhausted. Patiently, but vainly, had she waited for the removal of the Cherokces gurantccj by the United States—till finding further forbearance fruitless, she had thrown herself upon Iter sovereignty and taken forcible possession of her land. In like manner, Georgia had deposited at Washington, the protest of her Legislature against the iniquitous tarilf, with a stern expression of her intention not to submit to northern exaction. The period had now come when “ the argument was exhausted”—remonstrance had been unheed ed—Congress was deaf to our appeals, and sub servient to the manufacturing interest. The north, regardless of the justice due to the south, would not remove, or even lighten the burthens it ha 1 placed upon her, and we had no other prospect but increased oppression, without resort to the ener getic action of Slate interposition. It was at this crish; that generous, high-spirited Carolina came forward to interpose her sovereignty. Conscious that she would have the battle to fight alone against the host which would throng around the hero ol New Orleans, to trample her under foot, she quail ed not; resolved to devote herself to the sacrifice fur the common liberties of the south, with Spartan fortitude, she boldly threw herself into that Ther mopylae 1 and where then was Georgia ? She who had led the way in the determination to be free — she who had placed upon record her sense ot the selfish and wicked policy whose cilV't was to tax the southern consumer heavily, for ti.'c benefit o: the northern capitalist—she who had evinced such promptitude in the practice of Nullification as “the rightful remedy” ou previous occasions— I alas! she proved, at that most critical point, re creant to herself-—aye, more dishonorable still, she broke tier pledged faith to Carolina and the south. But let not our beloved State bear the infamy—it it was an act of corrupt demagogues; and on their heads should the people visit the s;u 1 It is noto rious that there were at that time in Georgia, a great number of office-seekers, who had never, till then, been able to rise into political distinction, and who have since proved themselves utterly unworthy ol it. Headed by men of talent and influence,' —ol whom a portion were unquestionably honest, though, as we believe, in error, but the greater part anxious to secure popular favor, anJ regardless ol the dictates of conscience and patriotism—these j aspirants saw that they could make hobbies of t.ie I alfcction for the Union, and the overwhelming per- j sonal attachment to Andrew Jackson, which had i till then prevailed in Georgia, and thus vide into office. Thus it was that ambition, sustained by popular infatuation, originated that party whose shibboleth was Union “and Jackson,” and thus was a majority in the State obtained, on whose shoulders the office-seekers were borne aloft. There for a while they rode triumphant. That was a melancholy chapter in Georgia’s history. The haughty State which had retu -.on obedience to the mandates of the Su ircmc Court * > which had 'curled back his impotent menaces into the teeth of President Adams, was now dragged in chains in the triumphal procession of a despot 1 Where then was her pride 1 With lowered crest, it was prostrate iu the dust of sycophancy. And j her glories—whither had they fiedl They had I vanished in incense, altered to the nostrils of on j arbitrary, tyrannic old man. It was a melancholy chapter, too, in American history. There was then idolatry every whtre in the land. The rude soldier who was dignified by 1 a venerable university with the highest honors of scholarship—the rash experimentalist, who was ! landed to the skies us the profound statesman— I ! and toast"! as -the facsimile of the ruck of j ages," — what was he less than an idoi 5 What I was he but a Juggernaut, beneath whose crushing i car the man-worshippers, in the spirit of Hindoo j 1 immolation, threw their liberties, that sacred birth- ! j of their children, and shouted, as the pon- j i derous temple of the destroyer roiled <»». “plorv to I ' Ja-'kson!” -J I But, thank heaven, tiic poopie have occn enngu ! tened. That party, which under the garb of love 1 for the Union, had driven the upright and the i gifted from the councils of the State, legislated for i their own interest exclusively, and divided among ! themselves the treasures of the people, is extinct. | The foul tongue of slander, whose venom had j been spit upon the purest ol heart in the land, has j been silenced —and they, who in a free country, t persecuted, aye, ostracised all wno presumed to differ from them in opinion, will soon shrink back into their primitive obs. urity, under the withering scowl of popular indignation. My object in stating thus forcibly the real cha racter of that party which his now for five years ridden rough-shod over Georgia, has been —not to harrow its conscience by a faithful picture of their iniquities, for it never had one—not to triumpa over a fallen foe—but that you may he led, by a brief review of our political condition during the Union domination, and by a consideration of the active, insidious nature of the opposition, to be on your guard—to lie ever vigilant. It ou have to contend with wily, and unprincipled antagonists— sec to it that they circumvent you not. Have you yet to learn that their principles arc those me taphorically represented by the five loaves and seven fishes 1 and consequently of that equally contractile and expansive nature which can adapt itself to all emergencies 1 Has not inconsistency always characterized their conduct ? i hey have placed Georgia in a hypocritical attitude, and ex posed her to the contempt of the world as incon stant and double-faced. While with one breatli they bitterly denounced “Carolina,” with the next they stoutly defended “Georgia” nullification. The man, who, on his assumption of the gubernatorial chair, descended to vulgar villificalion of nulli fiers, and slandered us in a manner most abhor rent to an American citizen, for our adherence to the doctrines of Jefferson, had the hypocrisy after this to recommend to the legislature to disregard the mandate of the Supreme Court, and to resist its execution with force. Rest assured that the present is not the season for repose—you must be on the alert. The immediate danger to be apprehended will approach in this form, The supremacy of the Stale Rights’ party 1 being now permanently established in Georgia, your adversaries will drop their war cry “down with the Nullics” —they will lower the black ban ner of persecution—they will cease to designate themselves as “Union men”—but they will not relax, but will rather redouble their efforts to break us down. Their object will he to throw the gol-' den apple of discord among us—to excite dissen tion—to dismember us on the Sub Treasury ques tion, and tempt as many of our members as they can to fall into their ranks. This is the only chance they have to re-instatc tlirm elves in au thoriy, and they will make the best of it. Shall wc suffer ourselves to he deluded ? State Rights’men! ye have nobly done your duty. Ye have struggled manfully to sustain the liberties of the country against Executive and Congressional usurpation—willyc now, for the attainment of a minor end, desert those principles whuh arc the on ly safeguard of our republican institutions, and the peculiar security of the South 1 I trust not. But is it not evident that if there be a portion of ous number favourably disposed to the Sub-Treasury scheme, and they allow themselves to be drawn into an amalgamation with the Union party, under the appellation of Sub-Treasury men, that our sa cred principles will be again uud-r the foot of that hideous rnonst r, consolidation, —and thatour State will again become a prey to the Harpies? Their instrumentality, tho’ innocent will have betrayed their stanch allies—the Union men will arrogate to themselves the Lion's share in tho Govern neat, and wc shall be a second time delivered over bound hand and fool to that rapacious horde. If there be any among our number who arc incli ned to consider tho Sub-Treasu y question as o an importance paramount to all others, let me be j seech them to pause and consider. I would not wish them to understand me to imply that this question is an insignificant one—far otherwise. I But when it is claimed, in tho present cant ol South Carolina, as -the great measure of deliver ancc and liber!/,” I frankly acknowledge that I deem this claim one of the popular humbugs which characterize the present administration. Never theless, allowing the Sub Treasury project to be the best scheme ever devised for the regulation ol the currency—weigh then its importance with that of those great principles in the defence of which we organ zed ourselves—and which will preponder | ate? You cann at hesitate in tho decision. Burc- I ly no one can suppose that the occasion has passed j away which required us to uphold the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions. If there be such u j one, he is grievously mistaken. For the last quar ter of a century there has been a gradual encroach ment by the General Government cn u. reserved rights ol the States. The IjatiUiJ.naaans have un dermined the bulwarks of the constitution one by one, and the pro. lamation, thatthin.g of abomination sustained by the odious Force Bill, stand monu ments ol'Exe, ul.'. o and Congressional usurpation. Has the patriot any reason to hope tiiat this insidi ous march of despo. in and consolidation into the I very citadel of our liberties has been checked in its progress? No. If there were no other cloud on I our horizon but the Fanaticism of Abolition, you would have sufficient cause to be ever watcluul, and prepared for action, when ver the storm may hurst, through a well e, ..adzed party at the helm of Blato. Bland then by your Palladium, State Rights’ j men! The preservation of your principles is ia- S dispensable to the salvation of your country—and while there is ° f without, we mast gu uJ the sn ared treasure. While our Union exists, our sole i ! security in political commotion, our strongest pro | tcction against the current of federal legislation, is i the right of State-interposition—that is the sheet anchor of our liberties. Desert not y jur principles, j your permanent safe-gin d for a temporary policy, iat best of doubtful expediency—you must choose between your fundamental doctrines, and the Sub • Treasury—there is no alternative. If but a small i oortion of our number identify themselves with the L uion party in support of that vexed question, they will then ally themselves with the Administration, ■ and become eu-workers with those who have prc“ v%\ \v vcn iocs To thfprospcWly mgr our common countr? —foes to the constitution—foes !o liberty, and foe* to national integrity ! Hut perhaps (his appeal to your patriotism is un necessary. I trust sanguinely that it is. You clung manfully to your principles at the recent election, and the result was glorious—glorious, be cause the triumph ofaflection for your &'«/<■. Fal ter not, then at any future period, if you love your country. Hearken not to the crafty persuasions of your adversaries—their solo object, remember, is again to rise—and if they succeed, it will be upon our ruin, and upon the prostrate constitution. Then will a suicidal arm have struck our death-blow ! State Rights’ Legislators ! You have the desti nies of Georgia in your hands—equally whether you arc in the majority or minority. There is rea son to fear that your fidelity will be sorely tested at this session. It is through you that the great effort will be made to dismember our party. Listen not to the voice of the charmer—be faithful to your constituents—be faithful to Georgia! Forget not that unanimity is the strength of our patriot band —that on your prudence and moderation is now dependent the permanence of State Rights’ princi" pies, and the welfare of Georgia—and may Hea ven grant wisdom to your councils.

All business is suspended— -1 he Governor has issued a proclamation, calling up on the loyalists to arm for the defence of the coun try and the greatest alarm seems to prevail. V\ c do not know what has led to this new corn met on ; whether the stories that have been circu lated in the province of the combination on this sale havealarmed them; or whether there is. in deed. well grounded apprehension of a serious re volt on the oilier.
