From IW Bruhoicirk A itocott
It is bul recently that public n'lcntion has
Ik-cii at all diroced to this point, as presuming
the no-aw try ferpiieile* lor an important city.
In fact ihe Northern merchants a ini siiip mas
ters, wdlfS igPrtVant that so fine a harbor was
•o be found on the Southern coast. But tlial
ignorant is rapidly vanishing, and Brunswick
Is now exciting in New England that (celling
in its favor, which exists in this Slate. The
various dotumcti's cmanaHiig Irom the high
est scources that hsve been so extensively cir
rulaled, present in a clear manner the great
advantages of tins Port, and must carry con
viction tn every nnhiassed mind of the impor
tance Which Brnttswick is destined at no dis
tant day to possess, and Ike influence she must
wield in the commercial operations of this
country.
So lolly has tins lieen canvassed bv
the Commissioners of the State, by Col.
I/ummi Baldwin & by the Navy Commission,
ers, that oar task is merely to give a transcript
of their investigations, and compress their
conclusions into the compass ol a newspaper
* Tfc.want has long been felt of a city at
once offering tacuruy to the Mm and crews
engaged ill carrying on tlie trade of the smilli.
The sickliness oftlie present mires to stran
gers during the hot mouths, is a fact so well
known,that it cannot be thought invidious in us
to speak ill’ll. This fact so well known at
the South, admits of most pain(ul proof in
every New England village, by the many ber
eaved families,that mourn the loss of some
dear member who lias added another to the
victims of a deadly climate, dying in a strange
land far a wav from the scenes and friends
of hi* childhood, and finding a neglected
grave in the “ Poildr’* field."
The causes of this unlioallhincss are be
hevedto be tlic mingling of the fresh with the
salt water, and the presence of stagnant pools.
The Southern cities are without an exception
ul the mouths of the rivers, usually at the head
of lido water, and with lire plantations in the
neighborhood. Now these causes must al
ways operate to make the climate dangerous
to strangers, and whatever may ho the advan
tages offered by good harbors and an extensive
bark conn'fry, those can bo bul imperfectly
improved, if merchant ships and strangers
can eater them only during a portion of the
year.
Brunswick possesses this advantage, that it
is silualcd on an arm ul the sea, with a high
dry sand hlulf and its shore washed by the
waves of the m oan, rolling in with every tide
from the Adamic. Turtle Uiver as tins arm
has been erroneously named, is not n river,
bul in every particular a Hmj. It extends in
to the interior about twenty miles from Ht.
.Simons Sound, and with deep water for the
greater part of the distance, receiving a small
ipianlity of trosh water from thu Buffalo
Swamp, but not sufikient to dimminish in any
sensible degree, tho silliness of the sea water.
In tho recent plan of the city and harbor,
drafted by Mr. (1. it. Baldwin, tbo late Kn
ginoor, “Oglethorpe Bay," has been substi
tuted for that of j'Turlln River." Tho name
of Oglethorpe was selected as n murk of res
pect to tbu memory ol the Father of Georgia, 1
ihe i’hilanthropiMi, Warrior anil Slalesman,
wlmse character attracts such iniivatsiil ad
miration ond ia hold deservedly dear, a sacc
ate d as it is with that turn menu I hand." who
planted lltc Colonies of America, From the
other great cause of sickness, stagnant water,
we tie also happily treed. Tho few ponds
in the neighborhood have all boon drained
at a considerable expense, and scarce a truce
of them remains. And we fool not the shgh l
rst hesitation in .pronouncing this as healthy
a port ns any in the country.
The entrance into tho harbor ia pronounced
by all computcnt judged, ns one of the leas
intricate m the con ilry. The outer bar is live
miles from Ht, Simons Light, and consists of
two sand spits projecting that distance into
the son from Hi. nunnua nndJekyl Islands,
with a ohsnnai way between sufficiently wills
for any ship to heat up. Suveral lings ul or
dinary draught have boon navigated by tin
masters to tho inner harbor without a piloi
and tills too without n single buoy to mark
tho course. These men oil pronounce it by
far the best harbor on the coast, ami when I lie
channel shall bp properly marked by buoys
mid beacons, no dilficuliy can occur in lliu
navigation. The harbor is completely land
locked, as immli so ns any in the country, and
tho security atterdec to cotton ships nod cut*
ton boats is perfect. This is tho opinion ox
pressud by intelligent shipmasters ami cotton
factors, and wo can hardly imagine how any
one in his saber senses, can have the effron
tery talk of the danger to which cotton bouts
mint be subjected in tills harbor.
The only cause which has retained Bruns
wick in such obscurity, and completely cheek
ed its growth, his been the want of a com
munication with the hack country. To obtain
tb s a,canal oftwelvo miles is n iw cutting from
Oglethorpe Buy to hmutliern Branch of the
Altamalia, which most give us the trade ol
that noble river, extending as it dons into the
heart oft ho State. It is till'; expoc" ml that
such urrang menu wdl.bo made nsiu bring
ft ore innuli of the cotton now sent from Augus
ta to Charleston, and tho Rad Road to the
Gull of Mexico, ■will, ns a matter of course,
take much of the produce how shipped irom
New Orleans and Iho ports hi the Gulf. Ol
tins wo sin i speak more folly in a (inure .num
ber. Those works must undoubtedly be retar
ded for the present by the frightfully deranged
stale of the business and currency of the
counry. lint tins cannot always continue,
and with (he return ofcoiilid-mce and order
•they will bo presented with renewed energy
ami activity.

“ It is currently reported in the official circles,

'B coniplishod Solicitor oftlie Treasury, is to go to

i- Batch, whose piinciptl claim to distinction is the
“ part lie acted in tho conspiracy against Mr. Cab
„ houn, us the friend and confederate of Van Bu

II Thus are political partisans rewarded. The de
parture of Ilia Solicitor will give great satisfaction
, 1° tbo Kitchen Clique. They have been long
is trying to get rid ol him. Things are, however,
,1 beginning to look a little squally, for these fob
a- lows, in another quarter. Mr. Poinsett, the Sec
votary °f M ur, is a man whose habits of thought
„ and feeling, taste and associations, would keep
„ him afar off Irom such a pestiferous and vulgar
• minded crow as Blair, Kendall, and their allies,
[j He ha* taken no pains to conceal his contempt
j and disgust for these beings; but ho has been
a open in repudiating their notions respecting the
i currency hatched in ignorance end folly, and also
in resisting their Jack Cade scheme against the
bank*. The Kitchen Cm nscllora have been la-
I boring with all their might to get up a clamour
r against those institutions, in order to divert public
i attention from themselves. The Globe has turn-
I ed Stales evidence against ihe government depo*-
ilurtrs; those precious instrument* of the “better
currency," which were eelected by Amos Ken
dalt, and placed under the special guardianship
of Levi Woodbury and Reuben M. Whitney.
These men bojie to oacajie by turning around
and calling their own chosen agents and accom
plices “rogues and swindlers.” That is the object
of»|l the .meeting* recently held in Philadelphia,
Baltimore, and this They were all got up
under the direction of Kendall and bis friends, (
in order to moke a popular movement against the I
%
banks—carry one class against anolbcet, and c
thhs distract (he public mind, and screen them- 1
selves from indignation and punishment. Mr. I
Poinsett will give no countenance to the agrarian |
crew in their designs, though they are ecquicsed I
in by others of the Cabinet; and this circum- 1
stance has caused considerable trouble in the
camp.
The Richmond Bhqhirer goes ‘on protesting
that tho Whigs will insist on a National Bank.
! The old renegradc is anxious we should move in
\ favor of such an institution, so as to afford the
administra(iun*sumc pretext for their snug scheme
of a Treasury Bank. Upon this the party are
lient. Their journals every where in the North
and West arc breaking ground in favor of such
{ an institution.
The refractory Post Master General is enrag
| ed at ihe Circuit Court here for granting a man
damus requiring him to credit Btockton & Stokes
with the money due them. Whether lie will
obey the mandate or not, it is impossible to say.
if he does not, he ought to lie impeached. He
has hud thu insolence to denounce the opinion of
the court us “an ex-parlc representation," and
promises to publish a full exposition of Ihe facts.
He will of course show the world that flie Soli
citor, the Judiciary Committee, the Senate, ond
ihe Court are all wrong, and he only right.—
Modest Amos! The letter of Mr. Wicklill’e has
eul through his Rhinoceros hide, and smarted
him so, that he has come out with a reply corro
borating all Mr, Wickliff’s statements by —his

The weather is unusually cool—yet have the
most of our citizens who ran get away gone off,
and left the metropolis almost uninhabited. It is
expected there will he an immense concourse
here at tho extra session. M.

Wo have account ! from England to the Hth ol
May, brought by the London packet, which left
Portsmouth on that day. Great gloom still per
vaded the money market; bul the measures of
Mr. Biddle hud contributed essentially to its re
lief, und papers of all parties are filled witli prai
ses of the skill and foresight of that gentleman
anil those who co-operated with him. The bonds
of the Bank of (be United Status were received
with the highest credit, und by expanding the
circulation, had produced a rise in cotton, und all
American productions, They have become a
part of the British ciiculatioii, and placed on a
level with Exchequer bills. This intelligence
had a most luvuruhle influence on stocks in New
Yoik. United States Bank rosu to 101 j, which
isu rise of one to II j per cent; and yet tho Globe
is employing Whitney, the bankrupt, to write ar
ticles to prove the institution insolvent! and thu
unprincipled renegade ut Richmond copies tho
. slanderous articles with commendation! The
mercantile and banking community in Great
Britain hud anticipated much of our distress and
embarrassment; bul they did nut dream of u gen
t oral suspension of specie payments. The Liv-'
i erpoul packet, St. Andrew, whoso day of sailing
was the Hill of May, but was probably postponed,
is aiinouneed to be below. It will no doubt bring
nows some days later.
The most able and enlightened Journals in Eu
ro|H) lake tbc same views of the “experiment” of
the blockheads at tbo bead of our government,
I which the whigs hero do. They ascribe our dis
, tress to tbo ignorant and violent prejudices which
I led to the “war on the currency ;” fc and they des
ignate Gen. Jackson’s measures us among the
leading causes of their own embarrassments.
The Whigs of Baltimore arc preparing for a

OVERTRADING.
The time for assuming “weighty rcsponsibili
-1108“ has gone—the Globe and Globules will not (
even allow Jackson the credit of ' aving done
any thing at all. The destruction of the United
Stales Bank, the Removal of the Depositcs, the
importation of 40 millions of gold, the hatching
300 Banks from the Treasury nest, the gather
ing of4o millions ol .Surplus, the Specie Circular
—all t|tc astonishing measures by which the
Great Tinker promised to make an entire new
ship out of the ruiiii bf the old one, have, accord
ing to the Globe, die'l without issue. For the De
posiles are dead, and the Deposile Banks and the
Deposilc system —the Surplus Revenue is dead
—‘the Gold is dead and buried—the Treasury
Circular already slinkelh—all this the Globe
knows and ever/ body knows, but he will have
it that they sneaked nut of existence without
drawing a tear or a sob from any living soul—
that they “died and made no sign.”
The Glolre holds the enure of an Earthquake
to lie the ground’s suddenly opening, and the
cause ol the present calamities to be “Whig over
trading.” This is now the reigning spectre —the
last war cry—and in the echo and re-echo of it
the Administration arc to bury the remembrance
of their former atrocious experiments. Amidst
the general annihilation of all things, “Whig
overtrading” stands, in the vision ol the Globe,
like the "last man” in that of the poet. The
mighty financiers of the kitchen have toiled and
fretted and boasted for six years, have overturned
all things, and changed all things, and now
the best defence they can make is that they
have done nothing at all! Alas for the
“ intuitive sagacity” of “ the greatest man of
this or any other age ! ! How has he ended in
smoke! Tom Paine’s definition of genius, will
henceforth be a definition of “intuitive sagacity.”
It goes op like a Meteor, and comes down—like
a stick.”—The great man’s footsteps” arc all
blotted out,or rather it Is now denied that he left
any track at all. What will little Martin* do!
How can ho follow when there is no path! He
will be lost.
This may seem playing with words and yet it
is but a fair statement of the facts. If J ackson’s
mcasuVes have not produced the present disasters
what effects have they produced! It is very cer
tain they have not prevented the evil. When
the Great Tinker resigned his office, and his
tools, he pronounced the country prosperous and
happy—he took the credit of it—his successor
spoke in the same tone—he promised to heep us
prosperous and happy in the same way, and give
the glory Jackson. The Globe declared that
there was no pressure—that money was plentier
than eve-;—and he too gave the glory of it to
Jackson. It was undeniable, then, that on the
4lh of March, the whole gang of Tinkers claimed
the entile credit of having brought the country to
the condition in which it then was. They
fiercely denied that there was any distress—
they said all things were just as they wished, and
that it was all their work. The causes accord
ing to the Globe, have entirely changed since
that lime; yet so irresistible is it that the mis
chief has resulted, from “tampering with the cur
rency,” that in denying Jackson to be the au
thor of the evils, the Globe is obliged to deny
that ho has “tampered with the currency.” “Who
then has tampered with the currency!” asks the
official paper in a tone that means to make the
interrogation pass both for an argument and a
denial. What is tampering with the currency,
Mr. Globe! It is meddling with it, sir—it is
changing it—it is attempting to turn a good cur
rency into a “belter”—it is “improving the cur
rency (or six years, and at the end of the six years,
leaving no currency at all. It must bo ahold
man that dares tosay Jackson has not done all
this. It is too late now to take from him the
crown which ho challenged on the 4lh of March.
There has been no “overtrading since that lime
and who will be so ungenerous as to take from
him his boast that by his “humble c(forts, ’’ the
country had Icon brought to such a condition of
“prosperity and happiness.”

pied the presidential chair, no less than three
hundrsd and filly seven more, have been added
to the number. During these eight yens, the
hue and cry has constantly been that "Jackson
will bring back the golden era!—Ac will give us
a solid and substantial currency of the pure met
als/ These eight y ears have now passed over,
ami sec the fulfilment of all these predictions.—
Every bank from Maine to the Sabine, from Cape
Florida to Canada,} has suspended payment.—
The merchants are all gone—failed and bank
rupted—hut the government is the worst bank
rupt of all. It demands specie, yet refuses to
pay it. It has proclaimed aloud that the pet
banks were fully adequ te to all the fiscal purpo
ses ol the counlty, yet'not one of them will now
pay a single dollar to the order of the Govern
ment, and the future depositories of the public
revenues are decreed to bo, the pockets of the
postmasters, and custom collectors. Vet while
this ruin was impending, nay, when it bad titter
ally fallen upon the community, matk the exul
ting cries, ami unfeeling ravings of the organs
and patasites o{ our paternal government, “Good
news! the merchants arc breaking!” grunts out
the Hampshire hog,—“Perish credit,” erics New
lork Beardsley. “Those who trade on bortowed
capital deserve to break!’ exclaimsthc immaculate
Jackson! “None brealy bat the dishonest," cries
the bankrupt Bl.ur, while the New York premon
itory, Cambfeiang, humanely exclaims, "at last
we have got tip banks on the hip.” Would not
such frantic exclamations be more suited to the '
cells of a lunatic assylutn, tban the legislative
hallsot this free and civilized country! And |
how can an insulted people’s retribution he ful- |
tilled! only by hurling the wretches from the
seats of power they have so long and bitterly
disgraced. The ballot box is our only remedy. j

ENGLISH NEWS.
The English papers arc filled with speculations
on the moucy market. Despondency and gloom
the forerunners of panic, seem to pervade all clas
ses. It appears to be conceded that the tempora
ry aid to certain large American houses cannot
sustain them beyond the period when news shall
have arrived in England that all our Banks have
suspended specie payments; and preperations
seem already in progress to substitute English
houses in good credit for the transaction of Amer
ican business. England will long have cause to
feel the clfects of the blow aimed at the credit
and prosperity of our merchants by the wretched
. charlatans in power on this side the Atlantic.
From uur Liverpool Correspondent, .
Liverpool, May 9,1837.
The public mind is now agitated by t,wo ques
tions. Sir Frances Burdclt has gallantly resign
ed his scat for Westminster, at the Radical call,
and again come forward as a candidate on the
Constitutional interest. His opponent is Mr.
Leader, a young man, M. P. for Bridgewater.—
1 It is an immense contest, Leader being taken up
by the Whig-Radicals, and Burdeltby the Tories
and backed by many ot his old friends. He de
’ dares bis politics unchanged—that he ever was a
1 a friend to the Constitution, and that Ministers
' with the O’Connell alliance, seek to destroy or
1 weaken it. Ho will fight a gallant fight, and Ihk
’ issue of the contest will be doubtful until the last
' moment. It is considered by both parlies such
r atrial of strength, that should Burdett win the
’ day, the downfall of the O’Connell Mellbourno
Cabinet will thereby be precipitated. Burdett
1 will appear, in person on the hustings. The
election lakes place Wednesday (to-morrow.)
’ The other event is the decision of the Lords on
! the Irish Corporation Bill. They have, on the
' Duke of Wellington’s motion, postponed its con
’ sidcration until June 9, in order that; ere that
I day, they may know what the Irish Church Bill
• and the Irish poor Law Dill will actually be,
• when finally passed by the Commons. Lord
Melbourne theratened the Lords with a collision
1 with the Commons, which thereat made the Duke
■ more unyielding. Lord M. meant that the sup
• plies might be stopped, but this was on Friday
" night, and half an hour alter he spoke, Mr. Hume
moved, in the Commons, (as an amendment to
1 the Chancellor of tile Exchequer’s motion that
! twenty four millions in Exchequer Bills might be
! voted,) that “the supplies be stopped until June
1 9.” But Rice said the money must be voted, to
1 carry on the Government; and it was voted, and
1 thus ends the juke of “Stopping the Supplies.”
The Itish Church Bill has come out. It is
not considered an improvement on the last,
which confiscated 30 per cent of the tylhos giv
ing the clergy 70! a year out of every 100!. they
arc entitled to, hut cannot receive ; ’cause way!
the tythe payers wont pay! Os this per cent, 25!
wore to go to the landlords us a bonus, and the
rest would be a surplus fund out of which to pro
-1 vide for the education of the children of Ireland.
’ But it was considered that the surplus was but
imaginary, and at any rate, it would bo 43 years
before it commenced. The new bill also takes
1 of3o per cent from the elegy’s incomes, as well
as 10 per cent extra, to form a fund to bo placed
; at the disposal of the Roman Catholic clergy ot
Ireland, for the education of the Irish poor. Thus
alienating the funds, of the Protestant Church
to educate the Irish in the Romish faith. This
• bill will never pass the Lords.
! Now you rjay ask what arc the prospects of i
i Ministers! my belief is they must go out. How 1
long Sir. R. Peel may retain the Govcnmont (tor
1 to him it will then be confided,) is a matter on j
i which I cannot venture an opinion. If he gets
, in I think ho will dissolve Parliament. The fol
lowing list has been handed about the clubs .
• in London as a promgrammeofthe administration
likely to be formed should Air R. Peel come into
office.
