’l'll 6 SiTKI POF PROPHECY.
Tho following, from Iho speech of Mr Cut,
in the tension of IBUI-M3, is prophecy itself, It
could not have been a mote faithful delineation
if wriltcjt at this lima, dcscrihiug wlist has occur
red, insto.ul of foretelling whit w >old he thecon
sequence of the madness of misrule.
"Mr. Clay thought it extremely fortunate that
this subject of Executive patronage came up at
this session, uninouinhercil hy any collateral
question. At the list session we had the
removal of the dapositea, tho Treasury He
part sustaining it, and tho Protest of the Presi
dent against the resolution nl the Senate. The
Dank mingled itself in all our discus-ions, and
the partisans ol Executin' pi vver availed them
selves of the prejudices which had been artfully
Gicitod against that institution, to deceive and
blind the People as to the enormity of Executive
pretensions. The Dank has hern loomed to des
truction, and no one now thinks tho rccharter of
it is practicable, or ought to ho attempted, I fear
said Mr. Clay, that tho people will havcjitst and
severe cause to regret its dealt union. The ad
ministration of it was uncommonly aide; and one
ia at a toss which tho most in admire, tho
imperlursbhle temper or I' o wisdom ol its enlight

a heller general currency than it supplied. The
injurious consequences of the sac ft lie# id this
valuable institution will be felt, Them being

in their issues ; tho vast number will exaggerate
the alarm, and general dlstreas, wide spread ruin,
and au explosion of tho whole hanking system,
or the establishment of a new Uuttk of tho United
States, will ho the ultimate effect*.”
Mr. Ci'XXKT.a distinguished Whig represen
tative from the city of Phd.idelphia, thus spoke
in Congress in January, 18 id;
"Sir, the project of tho Secretary of the Trea
sury astonishes me—it has astonished llto tona

the present agony—it is in the clearly snowed

the striking events of that day.
The first Bank of the United Slates expired in
Match, 1811. Between the list of January, 1811
and the close of the year ISM, more than one
hundred new hanks were established, to supply
this more unifjrm nail belter currency. For leu
millions as capital called in hy that hank, twen
ty millions of capital, so called, were invested in
these. In the place of fi>c and a half millions,
about (he amount of circulation in notes of that
bank withdrawn, twenty-two millions were push
ed out. Then canto a Mis|n’nsion of specie pay

immediate consequence of this su«q>eu*i"ii, the
circulation of the country, in the course of fifteen
months, increased fi ly jier rent., affront forty-five
to sixty-right millions ol dollars ; and die fruit
ol this more uni/onn current y was the failure
of innumerable traders, mechanics, and even fat

THE SIM HI I' OF niorilEt V.
1 Men ato often fitted fir «omo station* in public
life, while they are totally unqualified to fill t ilt-
I
, era. The same man may bo n kooil advocate, but
■ a bad counsellor—a good gem ml, but a poor dip
-1 lomsti t—an excellent farmer, hat an indifferent
1 met hanic—a first rata Doctor but a ruinous Ban
ker. So it ws* with General Jackson—ha led
tho armies of his country to battle with mtpxral
Idled xuceexs—he triumphed in the field, on the
race course and in tho cock-pit ; but still he was
unfit to rule in tho cabinet.*— Such wo believe
will ho the verdict of posterity—xtich the faithful
record of hi-tory. Few men arc fit for all sta
tions. Washington was an exception.
We have been led into the above remarks, by'
reflections upon tho effects of General Jackson's
measures against the currency of our country.
His success in the field ol battle had secured the
confidence of the people and with it the Presi
dential chair. Whatever measures of doubtful
policy ho attempted, ho always succeeded in so
curing for their support amajoiity of the people
hy making himself, his claims, his service*, nut
Ins measures, the point at issue. The people
sustained the mtasuies for the sake of the miii.
The disastrous consequences of these measures
should texch the people never again (o place it
military chieftain tu theehair of State.
Mr. (May never figured in the battle field ; but
his wisdom in the councils of his country has of
ten illumined her path to greatness, in tho dar
kest hours of political adversity. If the mantle
of the prophet had been cast upon his shoulders,
lie could not have foreseen with more certainty,
the consequences of Gen. Jackson's measures,
and tho present ruined condition of tho country,
Hum he depicted in the extract which wo publish
to-day from u speech of his, three years ago. Lis
ten to the prophetic orator—speaking of the des
truction of tho U. 8. Bank, ho says. —
"There being no longer any sentinel at the
head of our hanking establishments to warn
them hv its information amt operations, of ap
proaching danger, the local institutions, already
multiplied lo an alarming extent, and almost
daily multiplying, in seasons of prosperity will
make free and unrestrained emissions,”
How truly has this been fulfilled—3oo new
Banks have been created since tho destruction
of tbe U. 8. Bank—l 79 millions added to Bank j
Capital—l 23 millions added to Bank paper ctr
dilution—and :J!>B millions increase of loans and I
discounts!! But hear him still farther
All the channels of circulation will become j
gorged; property will will rise extravagantly high
and constantly looking up, the temptations
Ui purchase will be irresistible. Inordinate spec
ulation will ensue, debts will be Cicely eomracl
lcd”
Thus he foresaw tho rise in property and llto
rage for speculation, consequent upon the crea
tion of so many new Banks. He foresaw the
fictitious value which would be placed upon prop
erty of every description, and ho foresaw too, the
firu.le, tho awful tlaiouenteti;. But let him
speak for himself,
“and when the season of adversity comes ot romro
it mutt, tbe luiik*, acting without concert mi l
without guide, obeying tho taw of self-preserva
tion, will, all at the same lime. call i« their is
sues; the vast number will exaggerate the
alarm, and general distress, widespread ruin, and
■n explosion of the whole hanking system, n’r the
extabUalunent „f a new Bank ofthc United States
will he the ultimate effects.”
'Thus spoke Henry Clay in the winter *33 and
*34. But the Jackson papets abused him as u
federalist and the people hearkened—they do-1
nounced him *■ a panic maker and the people ! i
I consented—they decried him as (lie feed lawyer 1
oftho Batik, and the people lielieved—they pro
claimed Kim ax the enemy of tho "old hero" seek-
ing to rob him of bis “glory” and the people were .
enraged. His admonitions drawn from the stores
ol wisdom and experience were listened to only
as the idle wind. But the delusions of Jackson- j
ism have now passed away and the people arc ,
waking up to witness the realization of his pre- «
dictions lo lire U tter and the spirit. May they J

BALTIMORE, May 2t, 1837. ,
The faction at Washington, who lately lorded 1
il over us so proudly, have been obliged to knock (
under, and adopt a tone much humbler than 1
lltey have ever used—a tone of contrition and j
entreaty. Eveq tha infamous Xilobc begins to. '
krd now and ' 1
cannot fur any length of time maintain a decent
appearance. One of the most striking proofs j
that the powers at the Metropolis, ate, with all I ,
their swaggering, afraid of the results of their
pernicious policy, is lo lie found in the adoption ,
by the Glolie of its new battle cry, "The snprc- 1
msry of tho Laws am) the Constitution”—a 1
nu lio which the >\ bigs have long hung out on '
their outer wall, and under which they have
summoned the ft lends of the Law and the Con
stitution repeals dly lo resistance against the
edict* of a Despot, and the corruption and trcach
e>y of his myrmidons. That such a motto
should be adopted as the rallying cry of a parly,
who have Iwn distinguished hy nothing so much,
as their rono-mptuous disregard of the letter and
Spirit of both Law and Constitution, shews the
impudence of the official scribbler*, ami their em
ployers, hut it also proves that the knaves, with
whose nomination we arc now cursed, arc cow
ards too. l
Whal a set of cnthccilcs have for the lost eight
years had this country under their control! What '
accumulated mischief* have followed from their i
administration of ptiblia affairs! and yet now 1
they have (lie boldness to chargp on the Whigs '
tho consequence* of their own mischievous ex
perimcnU. Their gold and silver humbug has \
terminated in the banishmsnt of specie from cir
culation, sml tho substitution of depreciated pa. ;
per for the best currency the world ever saw
The con fade ary of "Del*,” which were to tic the 1
instrument* of a "better currency,” and were to
keep the public depusites more safely than the
United Slates Bank, are now openly charged by 1
tbe Metropolitan—(the semi-official journal much
in tho favour of Mr. Van Burcn) with having
"defrauded the people out of the last Surplus ,
Revenue." Tito Guvrnraient itself is bankrupt
and cannot pay a dollar in (ho currency required 1
by law to he paid lo the public creditor*. All
these disaster* they charge on the Whigs—
though they know they have tesulled from the
in*iino and pernicious doctrine* of the faction
who ruled Andrew Jackson, and were distinctly
pointed out by Webster, Clay, Binncy, and other
great Statesmen, is result* which must How from
the vaunted policy of tho Administration.
You will perceive that tho citizen* of Boston 1
have made a very strong demonstration, against
the Sjiocic Circular oftho Dgmaooove who pro- 1
>i !c» over the Pont Office Department. This ]
has called from tho Globe, to which Kendall is u
constant contributor, and of which he owns n !
part, an elaborate defence characterized by tho |
falsehood and impudence which mark most of ,
this official’s article*. Tho Postmaster General
has no authority in law for issuing ibis circular. :
The Law requires that all money paid nx the
Post office Department shall he paid in specie or ,
its equivalent;—hut not a word is said of cases
in which money is to be paid to the Department.
I bam by Express today, that the public
feeling throughout Western New York is equal- {
ly excited. Tho Rochester people have resolved |
not to submit any longer to what they justly |
designate us‘‘the tyrannical whims of ignorant (
despots.” The Globe continues to av ail the 1
mercantile portion of tho community with every ,
specie* of misrepresentation and calumny; and t
to heap upon individual merchants of the high- <
est distinction for public and private virtues, •
such as Mr. Lawrence, every ignominious epi
thet in its foul vocabulary. The pensioned slan
derer who conducts the Globe, basking in tho
sunshine of Government favor, cannot find a
more acceptable dish to servo up to the depraved
appetites of the pretenders and demagogues at I
Washington, than this mass of vituperation. It f
is to be hoped that at the present this highly ho- 1
notable and valuable class of men will remember <
the ttsuage they have received and withdraw j
their countenance and support from a party
whoso accredited organ thus add* insults to the
injuries it* employer* have brought on the met- 1
eantilo interest. 1
Baltimore is now beginning to prepare for its J
Congressional Election. Messrs. McKim and
Howard have been nominated by the Van Buren
iles, as “llto better currency” candidates, The
Whigs have not yet brought out their men. But •
they will lie such as will do honor to tho city and j
Congress, if elected. The Van Burcnites arc I
trying to get up a meeting of the mobocracy, in
Monument Square for to-morrow night, in order
lo shift the responsibility of the present disas.

“The present crisis,” says tho Constitutional- ,
ist, “ will bind still more (lon. Jackson and Mar- i
tin Van Burcn to the affections of a largo majori
ty ofthc people of the United Slates.”
Coming ex-calMra, this pioposition would
do very well, if it stood alone. But look at the
editor’* muons. The people will love and adore
these high functionaries, lor o.tempting what, in
j the very same at lido the editor admits to be im- '
j possible—llto adoption of a metalio currency !! .
In any body hula Jack.-on man, this would bo
called absurdity. But the editor has made a
lamentable mistake in point of fact. He consid
ers the rich as now suffering for the benefit of
the poor. To say nothing of the Jacobinism of I
exulting in such a state of things, how is the '
fact? Tho licit arc deprived of many superflui- <
ties, the poor ate deprived of bread. The labor
ing classes at the north arc thrown out of employ,
by tens if thousands. Verily, this war on the
j rich is for their benefit \ j Will it not bind still |
nearer Gen. Jackson and Van Burcn to the their 1
affections!" Will lltey not “ kiss the hand that '
smites them, and trust their idol, though be slay
them 1" '

GEORGIA, Columbia County: • C ,
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT.
March Adjourned Term, 1837. \
The f-'rand Jury having finished the business
assigned them the present term, would make a *
few general remarks. The present ciisis is one
of general distress in the commercial world, such y
an one heretofore unknown to the people of this
country. From the height of prosperity in sixty ||
days our commerce is prostrated. The staple ot _
our country has depreciated to half its contcmpla- (
led value, [nay much less on inferior qualities. “
Our monied institutions have become unable lo
accommodate in cxcliangc. The Banks to sus- t
tain themselves, have suspended specie payments
in many of the Southern Slates ; indeed a gloo- s
my picture is before the people of this country, f
We believe that the Circular denominated the *
Treasury circular to the receivers of public mon
ey for the sales of lands and Custom House du- ;
ties, restricting the former mode of payments, re
quiring specie payments, have had a tendency
to draw specie from State institutions, and had
a tendency to bring on the present distress. —
That it has impaired the confidence of the Bank- t
ing institutions of our country. The continued c
hostility to the Bank of the United Slates for r
several years past has also, we conceive, derang- <
ed exchange and monied operations. Bills of
exchange cannot be had; a premium is paid for
specie for traffic to lie sent abroad.
It is important that specie he retained in our (
country —that it should not he an object for specu* i
Ltioii—that if sucb speculation is carried to ex- I
tent, draining our Stale institutions, it will bring i
much greater distress upon our commerce, —we
therefore recommend the course pursued by our
Slate Banks in suspending specie payments, ,
We recommend to the community confidence in
our Banking institutions in the city of Augusta
and many other Banks in this State so far as I
our limited knowledge extends.
We recommend lo our fellow citizens that for
bearance necessary to sustain their interests on
the present prospects of our country, that the gol
den rule be observed and our court dockets will
not be crowded; our people will be happy and their
integrity remain uniinpcachcd.
Much inconvenience has occurred to our coun
ty (and we presume in others,) in relation to suits
in law. Our judges have usually been practition
ers of Law—have been engaged us attorneys, and
have felt a delicacy in sitting on the Bench to
try suits brought by themselves : It has been
difficult to obtain a judge from other circuits.—
The people have experienced much inconvcni
dice during the past twelve months : We think
the term of service of Ihejudgesof the Superior
Courts should be six years which would obviate
the case much. We therefore recommend our
Senator and representatives to the next Legisla
ture, to give this subject some notice. In taking
leave of their honors Judges Andrews and Shly
we would tender them our thanks for the courte
sy extended by them lo this body during the pre
sent session.
Wo request these presentments to bo publish
ed in the Chronicle and Sentinel edited in the
City of Augusta.

pleasure in recommending it to the pahlic. The Mini

Hy moulding ten hours in the diy.itwould therefore Ive

L. Smith’s new Brick-making Machine, just put in
fo operation in this place: and (cel no hesitation in B W
pronouncing it a great and useful improvement on
any other method of brick making I have ever seen
both as to the quality of the brick and expedition in
making. By request, 1 timed the machine for half
an hour; the result of that trial shows that with 14 ■-
hands the machine w ill turn out of beautiful and A
well tempered brick 2363 in one hour, or about 40 to
the minute.
