titnl Ciiy if Altaian. —We recent)} ' copied a
paragraph from one of the Western paper*, con
taining an account of the discover)' ol an *„cient
fcily in the fir weal. At the lime wo considered
the whole affair ua bordering too much upon the
marvellous to lie worthy ot implicit credit; hut it
now appears in »o very authentic a form in the
columns of the Chicago American, that wc
can no longer withhold our belief. It will doubt-
Im pravijo abundant speculation for the learned
of every country. Ua'jylon. Ualbcr, Pußnyra,
Theces and Memphis present ruin* that wcic
once inhabited by people who are well known
to us by die record* of history. Uut here, in the
hack »nd beautiful wilds ui North America, ha*
been discovered the ruin* ofa large and half bu
ried city, of the population of which nothing
whatever ia known. They were probably a race
W men who have entirely passed away fom the
face of the earth. Certainly the Indians of the
preisnt day and thair forefather* nerer dwelt in
cilia*; and while the mound* of Missouri and Il
linois, particularly that singular structure, Monk's
Mound, bear evidence of having been construct
ed by a totally different ami more civilized
people than any of the (so-called) aborigin
al tribe*—thi* city of Altaian, the discovered
pari* of which are built with brick, i* evidently
the work of men who well understood the arts of
masonry, surveying and fortification.
Oy whom Altaian wav built, and by whom
peopled—we leave to the learned in Archeology
merely remarking that some ot the more remote
Indian Tribes ere (aid to have tradition* ofaiio'h
ter nation having once existed in North America.
In the Chicago American newspaper, them ia a
drawing of the supposed citadel of Altaian, a» it
now stands. It is of great extent, the wall* about
five feet high, and regularly fortified by strong
■abutment* resembling auch at arc used in tho wal
ling of both ancient and modern town*. The
space thus employed is entirely circummurod, of
large extent, and containing lour squire mound*
for defence, placed ill advantageous position*.
There is the remain* of a road, and the mouth of
a «ew. r formed of stone masonry, which de
bouches on tit* river. Out-idc tho walls of the
’citadel are numerous mounds, evidently intend
ed for warlike purposes, and varying from 3 to
35 fort in height. The walls and buttresses are
el brick and twenly-lhreo feel in breadth, and the
entire plan of the eitrdal is evidently formed on
mathematical principles.
The drawing to which we refer, ai well as the
descriptive particulars accompanying it, am the
results of en actual survey by N. F. Hyer.Esq.
who stales that these ‘'ruins form a new and
Vromlnont attraction among the many the Weal
effirds, and illustrates ami confirms some of the
strange llioorius and opinions nf scholars in rela
linn to the early character of our Western Terri
tory. Will tho mysteries of Altaian over be tin-
Voilved I Os a truth, the far-west is rich in
■wonders, anti in all probability this is only the
first in train of discoveries for future
and admiration. This ancient metropolis of a by
gone world has left traces of being aome miles in
extent. It i« situated in the township of Jeffer
son, west of Milwauchic, and on the west side of
the west branch of Ho ,, k Kiver.

One of the most serious charge* brought
by Gen. Jackson against the late United Siaics
Bank was that it interfered with tho politics
.qf pie country. Whether the charge wa*
true or false is now a matter of little come
q leitce; though we ilnnk that the country is
not likely to gain much in this fespect by the
substitution ot tho depos'te or pet hanks. In
looking over the letters which have been
brought to light by the Whitney investigat on,
wo find one tom the Seventh Ward Bank of
New York, address'd to Ihe Secretary ot the
Treasury, soliciting a share of “the fiscal pat
ronage of the Treasury of the United Hiatts."
Tno fallowing paragraphs are extracted from
the loner ;
'Tile services of tho Seventh Ward Bulk
are respectfully offered to the Hon. lh?Sucte
lary of the Treasury.
“ The D.rectors feel more confidence in this

TION.
“The Directors, furring the highest person,

ly request the Secretaty to lay tin* letter be

(Signed) WALTER BOWNE, President.
Tins letter not having brought the expect
ed share of ‘ the fiscal patronage of the Treas
ury of the United Stales,” the following was
iuditaJ and despatched with*belter success :
New Yoke, Dec. 16.1833.

MAKING THE CDu R £*' VCY '
Wc remember to have heard ° l ‘- r I’®' 11 : 1 '
, (hi days an anecdote of a bungling biJ c * cs ' nil '
who undertook to make an axb. (or an nJ' nes ‘
, farmer. The farmer, as will be might distrust
ed from the tirsl, the ability of the protended
f workman io finish the utensil according to
, “ Collin’*" improved edition ; but as it was
the only chance, the iron was produced and
> at it the workman went. After blowing, and
i heating, and beating the metal, with some
thing of old Vulcan’s power uml wrath, no
thing in the shape of an axe appeared. 1 can
make a mattock of it said the mechanic. Do
it, said iho farmer, for it will suit me just as
i well. The bellows heaved, tho sparks flew,
I the trammer came down just at before with
I much power and little knowledge, but no
shape, aize, or comeliness of a mattack was
there. I can make—and can whip the man
that aays I cant--.I wish I may never blow
another bellow* if I cant make a first rate
dirts of this game piece of iron. Do it then,
replied the enraged customer, I may have
some use for such an article,so a the went with
' Iho same blind zeal and determined energy,
blowing like a tame hurricane and beating like
, a perpetual motion, until in utter dixpair of
fashioning the clivis, and seeing the iron well
nigh consumed* lie snatched it from his blaz
, mg furnace Si swore by hisjanvil that he could
f make a fry of it. Suiting the action to the
. word he raised the sparkling remnant and dash
r ing into a slack trough did make the rax he
had promised.
, There is semething in lit* late tinkering of
the Government with the currency and the
, results that have followed, which remind* m
forcibly of the above anecdote. General Jtck
. ton and the government promised to make a
, currency for the country which should exactly
, suit the farmers and every other profession in
' the land. They hammered away until the
[ shah* of their first bantling was lost tight ot;
ihe was ora shaped : ami iheoext rifnrt
wlfl.rt was to make a mattock by substituting ( til
a batch ufopcl banks, which instead of ti c ( by
Bank of the United Sl«‘e* was to supply • 1 u
uniform currency. The tiling not working 1,1
well, tho next effort was rtF nuke a divinity •*
demanding gold and Silver in payment of dells j I"
due to tile United Slates. Tins too failing
they have hammered away without a day’s in-1
tennission until they have found the country 1 '•
infinitely worse off than when they began, j 1
The currency is utterly deranged, the iron is j P'
burning out, and Iho workmen have only made , (
a fro of it at last.
VVe arc not disposed to indulge in feelings l(
of levity on tins serious and appalling sub- ((
ject. There are *,ciies daily transpiring (|
which admonishes u» that in tin* particular Iho 0
country has been wilfully and dangerously -j
misgoverned. Who can smile when the cry ; c
of bankruptcy from some, and the groans ot
dispair from others are watted on every breeze, f,
Who can look around him and ruffe ;l on the a
distress which this inisgovernment has brought a
upon the land, without secretly cursing the a
causes of the calamity ? Democracy, for h
ought wc know, may be a very good llnng in o
its place; but that democracy which deranges '1
the fiscal concerns ofa gr lat nation; that de- 11
mocracy which destroys the confidence so ne- tl
ccwary to the operations of commerce; that j 1
democracy which finds a people in a slate of Jj
enviable and uninterrupted prosperity leates
them by it* vile workings, poorer than Job, “
more miserable than Lazarus, is the demon o( 11
political durkncHs,the mocking fiend ofa na- j*
lion’s sorrow. Let the pa lizaiis of the laic 1
President laud him ns they will, history will *
drawtho lino of distinction between hi* good (
and bad conduct, and will brand him for his
last official acts, as the recklo-a disregardor of t
his country’s interest.— Columbus Enq. c
Ths Latz C*pt. Cm bus Melion. — At a 1
meeting of officers of tho United States army, “
held at Volusia, on tho 22d of February, a com- 1
mitleo appointed for that purpose, reported the I
following resolution* in relation to their late com
panion in arm*, Uapt. Charles Mellon, who fell 11
in a recent action against the Seminolo Indian* 1
at Lake Monroe.
Resolved, That we deplore the decease of Cap
tain Mellon, as a loss to tho army, a loss to so- *■
ciety, and a loss, severely felt, in our own circle
of companionship, to which he was endeared by
tics of friendly fellowship, and of cordial regard. I
A soldier in all hi* feelings, a patriot in all bis r
aspirations, ho has long keen identified with the I
military service of his country. Distinguished I
in tho second war with Great Britain—conspicu- '
ous in the bloody encounter with the savages of <1
the Wythlacoochec—and at last, the free votary a
of heroism at tho battle at Lak* Monroe. At 1
the first signal war whoop he was promptly at his
post, directing tho fire of his men, or reassuring t
them in confidence and composure. Ho fell too I
early in Iho action to witness its victorious issue; 1
but he reposes in glory upon the field now asso- I
. dated with historic recollections, and consecrated i
by his blood.
Resolved, That we sympathise deeply with i
his bereaved widow and fatherless children, in a |
loss that vve will not presume by words to mea- i
sure or describe. As a tribute, however, of our
sincere condolence with her, and of our respect
for the departed, wo would offer this manifestation 1
of our fooling*.’’ 1

that the majority would hav* been quite as largo

j The news from New York get worse and worse.
Failures continue, stocks are going down, confi
dence is gone, money cannot be had, and a gen
eral bankruptcy seems to he impending over the
city. Wc can do nothing but chronicle tho bad
new* from day to day, believing it to bo our duty
to tell the naked truth and let the community pre
pare for the consequences.
In our own city business seems to be at a stand
—much cotton is daily arriving hut scarcely a bag
is sold. It i* all stored on account of the plan
ters, the banka doing but little in the way of dis
counts, tho Commission Merchants are unable to
make advances upon it, and the planter is there
fore unable to pay the regular Merchant his ex
isting dues. Thus the wheels of commerce arc
effectually locked.
What are the causes of this state of things, and
what are tho remedies to be applied ? These are
grave questions which we shall endeavor to an
swer in a day or two.

f MEXICO. -
Whether M*»ico will be so foolish as to d»-
! clare war against the United Slates, cither formal
ly or informally, is a question which we think
I will be speedily settled. The new* from that de
: voted city pubiised yesterday in the Bulletin, does
t not exhibit a very prosperous condition of thing*
■ in the capital. Priestly domination is at the hot*
t tom of all the evils that Mexico is now suffering
t under, and so long a* she submits to be governed
l in any way by a hierarchy, she is destined to the
> doom of an enslaved nation. Not content with
; governing ferae a* an integral part of the Union

losing in his disgraced laurels, waiting till a ma- so
orify of the servile Mexicans shall place him
jnco more in power. Vending this event, things sti
liruughoul the Union are in a complete state of
lisordi-r. Willi all tlic gravity of their proud and cl
powerful ancestors, the Congress convenes to sit ot
in secret session upon the message of President in
laekson. The result is not known, hut doubt- tli
less that wile body will resist I To gain their end, ei
the party in power, that is the priests, arc trying fu
to excite the people against foreigners. Texas, u|
100, is declared in a state us blockade, and a mis- hi
onhle fleet is sent to carry the order into effect, in
The government has been tampering with the ir
copper currency, and the beggars of the city are th
inexorable in their demand to restore it to its 31
former value. The distant stales of the Union hi
arc disaffected towards the present tyranny, an I C
and are on the eve of rebellion, if they have not li
already raised the standard of oppositoin. Such si
is thesum of the news received from the country B
of thn Monlczumas, up to the Islh of March. II
Those among the Mexicans in whose breasts the It
flame of liberty is lighted up, all well aware of S
the difficulties that prevent the country from en
joying thn fair fruits of its independence. They m
know that the Priesthood, like an incumbus, w
hangs over their beloved Mexico, blighting and ll
destroying the plant of freedom. And yet they ei
have not the moral courage to rise in their might d
and strike a deadly blow against this hundred it
headed 'hydra. Demagogues see this fact, it
and they seize upon the power of the priests and n
the hi nd superstition of the people to rule the lat- (.
ter with a rud of iron, while the purposes of the C
former arc subserved by their u. ion with such Ti
unprincipled men. Mexico may make as many S
constitutions as she please, but. unless she drive
the Priests from their strongholds, unless she do t;
as we did, declare liberty of conscience and hurst a
the hands of church and state, she will never tr
prosper, never advance one step in the high road t(
of rationaljiherty, never be ought else than a lorn it
distracted, wretched, and priest-governed coun- ft
try.

The intelligence by the express mail, from New 1
Orleans, is far from flallciing. Another large 1
failure is mentioned. The Bee remarks that I
“ the Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohioboitmcn will
now take nothing hut specie in the return for the 1
products brought down by them ; and it is com
mon to see them wending their way to the liovce
with bags of silver dollars in each hand.”

CITY NEWS.
Thursday, P. M.—A gloom is still spread over 1
Wall street; and in fact wo think the day has <
been more desponding than ever. Stocks, which I
it was believed could not go lower, were sold at a |
further reduction, and at a point never before |
reached. Confidence in every thing is shaken so I
much so, that houses which have stood the storm
for the last generation, mid which have ever been 1
considered doubly fortified, find it difficult to ne- 1
goliate paper, unquestionable foi its strength, i
even at a most ruinous rates ol interest. Houses 1
have been compelled to suspend, or to ask time,
that show more than half a million of assets over
and above their liabilities. In this state of de
rangement the largo auctioneers have announced 1
their intention not to go on with package sales,
which is a prudent course. Let the storm Wow
over, for who would sell half a million at auction
at this time, and guarantee the paper. As for
cash sales, they arc out of the question. An im
mense amount of goods is held by importers rea
dy to be sold, but in the first place those who arc <
solvent and mean to pay their notes, are reluc- <
taut to make new engagements : and in the sec
ond, if impot tors have ever so much paper on
hand, aside from the risk, it is impassible to turn
it into cash. The Bank of the United States has
resolved to put forth Post Notes payable in this
country. This is amostjudiciousniove,and will
assist credit very materially. The merchant
now, if ho has a pocket book full of notes, either
payable in or out of the city, cannot raise money
on them. If. however, he can get them discount
ed by taking U. 8. Post Notes, he will be pos
sessed ol a description of paper which will bring
the money when every thing else fails. We
have before suggested such a method, and arc
gratified to see it adopted. Tho plan must work
well. Tho time of private deposits in the banks
has seldom been as great as at present. This is
owing to the want of confidence in Slocks or
Notes. Tho Bonds of the United States Bank
will, no doubt, bring this description of Funds
into use.
The day has not closed without bringing down
some veiy large houses, and among them the re
spectable firm of I. R. St. John, brokers in Wall
street. This house was like the Josephs, engaged
extensively in receiving Southern paper of the
merchants, to whom they gave their own notes,
the result of which is, that the engagements arc
of an enormous character. Tho stoppage ol such
a house must necessarily affect many others.
Tho firm of H. M. Andrews & Co. Brokers
and Commission Merchants, in Wall street, give
public notice that they shall pay their own Paper,
hut that their acceptances for Southern Houses,
will go hack unless they arc provided with the
promised means to pay the same.
The Express Mail to-day, brings us doleful
tidings from New Orleans. It appears that the
failure of the Josephs, had just reached that city.
Tho sensation produced was very great. The
effect it is feared would lie most disastrous. The
Ben says, “The Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohio
boatmen willjnoiv take nothing but specie in re
turn for the products broubht down by them, and
it is common to see them wending their way to
the levee with bags of silver dollarsin each hand.”
Our correspondent from Washington, repre
sents the monied affairs of Richmond in a very
deranged stale. This news from the ancient
city, together with that from New Orleans, and
almost every other place, must, we think, con
vince even the Globe, that there is a pressure in
the monied affairs of tho country.
Things looked gloomy on change to-day.
y crv little was doing, and cvcty thing was de
pressed. Large arrivals of wheat, but no sales,

MONEY MARKET. '
Friday, April 7. ,
Yes erday was the most excitable day we have j
seen in Wall street since the present pressure ,
began. It would seem as if all commercial con- 1
fidence had gone entirely. Something like a ]
panic alto affected the stock market. United ;
Stales Bank fell to 114 and 114 J—State Bank I
rent down to par, and many solid bank stocks 1
rcre more or less affected. Among the fancy
locks the route was melancholy. In this de- j ,
crlption, the prices of some are now lower than j
hey were in October last, and many never stood $
.0 low befoie. t
The general aspect of the money market affects s
.locks in two ways.
The first is Ibis—the pressure on the mer-
disnts is so great, that solvent houses must sell
>ut their stocks, bought formerly at higher pticca (
n order to raise money. Probably two thirds of ,
he transactions are of this description. Anolh- I
rr is tin?—capitalists are selling out fancy slocks, ’
for fear that sonic of the companies should blow
up. The money thus realized is deposited in the (
aanks for safu keeping, for the confidence in com- ,
aiercial paper is almost annihilated. At this mo- 1
ment the private depusites—to say nothing of |
the government deposites in the various banks — ■
ire probably higher than they ever were sine#
banking began in this state. By the report of the ,
Commissioners, made to the legislature on the ,
Ist of January last, the New York city banks 1
stood thus ;
Bank notes in circulation, £8,155,883
Deposites of the United States, 7,176,031
Individual deposites us capitalists, 11,180,310
Specie. 3,854,452
Since tliis statement was made, several move
ments have taken place in the money market,
which have changed tho relative proportion of
these items to each other. The bank notes in
circulation, and the specie, have probably both
diminished ; while the public and private depos
ites have increased. According to the best esti
mates, tbc following may bo written do,wn as
near the truth for Ist of April, 1837;
City bank notes in circulation, $7,500,000
Government deposites, 8,500,000
Individual deposites, 12,500,000
Specie, 2,800,000
By this statement it will appear that the capi
talists, who make these deposites, have withdrawn
an additional sum front (lie negotiation of com
mercial paper, and from the sales of stocks, merely
to deposite in the banks for safe keeping. The
increase of the government deposites also arises
from a drain made on commercial business.
The panic and general disruption of confidence,
cause, in a great measure, this accumulation of
deposites—hut places the credit of the
whole banking system in the hands of the capi
talists, who there make the deposits. Even this
small amount of specie is quite sufficient to be tho
basis of the circulation in ordinary times, for the
great amount of bank notes in transition fiom
band to hand, is required to do the daily and le
gitimate business of life. But if the capitalists,
who own the deposites, were to take an alarm in
relation to the banks, they could in three hours
cause a general suspension of specie payments
throughout Ijio city.
Is it fortunate,.however, that the capitalists or
depositors have their own intciests blended with
the general interests of the community. They
would not dare to ask for their deposites, for fear
of the consequences that might follow. Self-in
tuicst, ami every feeling of prudence, will preserve
tiro banks fiom any run by tire depositors.
Tho grout interests among which tho panic ra
ges uncontrolled at this moment, are tiro dry
goods and the real estate dealers. The personal
securities, in both these blanches, arc utterly un
ncgoliahlo in Wall street. Yet it is a remarkable
fact,that out of the whole fifty failures wlrich have
been enumerated, perhaps forty can show a large
surplus of assets as compared with liabilities. We
could mention special facts —but the general state
ment is well known to bo strictly correct. They
have fassets in abundance, consisting of notes
and bills of exchange, hut they arc not negotiable.
There is, however, a great difference between
the assets of the Real Estate dealers and those
entirely confined to Dry Goods. The assets of
the former arc based on the high speculative pri
ces,which the recent mania warmed into existence
—the latter are predicated on merchandise sold
at fair and legitimate prices. For although the
excess of imports for tho last six years, from 1830
to 1837 amounts to $160,000,000, yet this very
prodigious influx of foreign values kept down the
prices, and prevented speculation in that particu
lar attribute.
Yet the general gloom is not without some
rays of relief. The immense amount of private
deposites in the banks indicates, with mathemat
ical accuracy, that the general confidence and gen
eral health were never higher in a mixed coin
mcicial, community. Thus far, only two or
three branches of trade have been affected—Dry
Goods, Real Estate, Exchanges and Stocks. In
every other branch there is a decline of activity,
but no disruption of confidence. Tho failures
and disasters arc produced in those very walks of
business that degenerated from the good old sys
tems of short credits—snug imports—and opera
tions within the limits of capital.
The first perturbation that has caused the pres
ent teaction, may perhaps bo found in the extra
ordinary increase of imports which took place af
ter the fire of December, 1835—known now to be
sixty one millions beyond the exports. These
values found their way from the Atlantic porta to
the south and west, at long credits and good pri
ces. Cotemporaneous with this movement, the
speculations in the public lands—in new towns —
and in city lots began. The rebuilding of the
Burnt District also took place. Part of tho pro
ceeds of the excess of imports, instead of being re
mitted to the Atlantic, to form tho basis of repay
ments to England and France, were invested in
public lands and town lots—partly by the Atlan
tic and partly the southern and western houses.
By this operation the money which ought to have
paid our foreign debts found its way to the Public
Treasury, and there it has remained, running to
and fro over the country, or standing stock still,
under the operation of the laws of Congress ot
the laws of lhe ( states. The result of these move
ments is that our foreign creditors must extend
the day of payment, or lose the balanccduo them,
caused by the excess of imports. In the'mean
time, that branch of the foreign trade and the
public lands business will be completely paralyz
ed. This shock will diminish imports—and hence
diminish duties and the sales of public lands—
and thus by a singular self destructive process,
on the prinaiplo of killing the goose that laid the
golden egg, the surplus tcvenue, by its operation
on the laws of commerce, will in one year destroy
the very source of its own supply. From the
general commercial revulsion now going on, the
M|blic revenue for 1837 will most likely be di
minished two thirds.
The governor of Pennsylvania has vetoed the
Improvement Bill, expending three millions in
canals in that slate, on the ground that specula
tion caused its passage, and that it would involve
a further expenditure of twenty-four millions,
thus increasing the slate debt to forty-five millions
The governor has shown great moral courragc.
It was stated in an evening paper that two of
the largest auction houses had suspended further
sales of package goods in consequence of the pan
ic. Several more failures were also reported yes
terday, and a good many, on showing a surplus
had extensions ma de to them. The Cashier of,
the United Stales Bank will be in town today
with a fresh supply of bonds. This day and to
morrow will bo terrible.
