Hie profusion ol tears that foil upon Its check, I
locked up m it* in itnnrs face, threw Us litile i
arms around her neck, and wept aloud. “in
the name ol Heaven, Eliza, release the clnlU, l

savages entered. »
By tint time Morgan had secured his child r
in n bag, and laslic 1 n lo Ins hack; then throw- (l
mg offnomo clapboards from the roof nf Ins
r.ahio, resolutely leaded to the ground. He “
was instantly assailed by two Indians. As
the first approached; he, knocked him down 1
with the butt end of the gnn. The other ad
vanced with uplifted tomahawk; Morgan let t
(all his gun and rlo.sod in. The savage made
a blow, missed aim, hut severed tho curd that ‘
bound the infant to hia back, and It full. The
contest over the child now become warm and I
tierce, and was carried on with kives only.
Tho robust ami athletic Morgan at,length u,’,t I
the ascendency. Both were badly cut and hied 1
freely, but the stabs of tho white man wore hoi- "
ter aimed and deeper, & the savage soon smile
lo the earth in dual I).“Morgan hastily took up
hia child and hurried off. 11
The.lndians in the house, busily engaged in
drinking and plundering, were not apprized of 1
tho contest in Ihc yard, until the one that had 1
been knoc ed down gave signs of returning
life, and called them to the scene of action.
Morgan was discovered, immediately pursued /*
and a dog pot on Ins trail. Opera'sil upon 1
by all the feelings of a husband and a farther 1
tw moved with all the speed of a hunted 1
stag, and soon outstripped the Indian*, but *
the dog kept m close pursuit. Finding it im- 1
possible to outrun of elude the cunning an
inial, trained to hunts of this kind, he halted 1
and waited until it came within a few 1
yards of him, fired, aud brought him down 1
♦—reloaded Ins gun, and pushed forward. '
lit a short lime he reached tho house ol Jus
brother, who resided between Bryant’s Su- !
Hon and Lexington, where ho It’ll tho child, 1
and the two brothers set out.ft.r his dwelling.
As they approached, a light broke upon his
view—his speed quickened, ois tears increas
ed, and the must agonizing apprehensions
crowded upon Its mind. He emerged Imm
the canchruke, belte d h s house m tl.unos, and
almost burnt to the ground “My wild!" be
exclaimed, as tic pressed one hand to In* lore
head, and grasped the fence with tho other, to
support l*is (ottering frame. Ho gazed for
sumo time on the rum and desolation before
him, advanced a few paces, and sunk exhaus
ted to the earth.
Morning came ami the bright luminary of
Heaven arose, and still found him seated near
the almost expiring embers. In his right tie j
held a small stick, with which he was tracing j
the name of “Eliza" on the ground; Ins leu
hand was thrown on Ins lavonle dog, that lay
by hit side, looking first on the rum and then
on his master, with ev dent signs of grief.—
Morgan arose. The 'two brothers now made
a search and found some bones, bornt to ashes
winch they carefully gathered, uml silently
consigned to their moiher earth beneath the
w.de-spreid If.nches of u venerable oak,
cooscscrated by the purest and holiest recol.
Jed ion*.
Several days afer 'his, Morgan was en
gaged in a de*perau?batlle at me lower Blue
Licks. The Indians came oft' victors, and
the surviving whites retreated across the
Licking, but were pursued by the enemy for
a distance of k x and thirty miles.
James Morgan was the lad that crossed
the river and was in-tho rear until tho lull
was dciccnde I. As soon «s lie beheld, the
Indians rr-appear on the r.dge, ho (elt an< - w
hs wrongs amt recollectml thO lovely object
ot hit early aftbrtiotis. He urged on his
hor.-e, and pressed to the tront. While in
tho act o! Icaicdg from his saddle he received
u nils ball m Ins thigh, and fell; an Indian
■prang uptn him. seized him by tho Imir and
applied the sculping knife. At this moment
Morgan casi up his eyes and recognised the
handkerchief that bound the head of the sav
«««, and which he knew lobe Ins wife's. This
added rctiS .ed strength u> i,i» i>.<d) a. d in
i creased activity to o ■ lory. He quickly threw
i hi# lettarm around the Indian d: with a death
like grasp.huggod him to lusboaom,plunged hit
knife into In# side, and he expired in Ina aim*.
Releasing lumiell from the savage, Morgan
crawled undera'stnall oaken an elevated piece
■ut ground a shoit distance Irom him. The
•scene «f action shifted, ard I, e remained on
discovered and unaealpcd, an anxious spccta

It was now midnight. The eivngc band,

sddiumial hosrnr to lire feeble cries of a few
mil lingering m the lari agonic* ot protract

rending sensation*, and looked Toward with
lire spalliy oftlcapairto lnsnwn end.
A large, ferocious 1 >ok ng bear,covered all
over with blood, now approached him; hw
threw himself on the ground, silently com
mooned his soul to Heaven, and m breath
less anxiety awaited Ins fate. Tho satiated
animal slowly pa-oicd on without noticing
him. Morgan raised Ina head—was alioii - . ot
tering thanks lor hi* unexpected preservation
when the cry of a pack of wolvns opened up
on him, and again awakened him lo a. Rente
ot danger, lie placed hit hands over hia
eyes- .e 1 ! on Lis faro, and in silent agony
a waited his fill', - , He now heard a rustling in
tha bushes—step* approached—a cold chill
ran over him. Imagination— creative, buay
imagination, was actively employed; death,
tho most horrible death, awaited linn; hit
limbs would in all probability ne lorn from Ins
body, and he he devoured alive. He Cult n

: THE NSW "EXPERIMENT"—THE GOLD
HUMBUG ABANDONED—THE TREA
SURY HANK.
Washington, June 28th, 1837.
j I’ho Administration is preparing for another
I expetiment on the life’s blood of the American j
! people! Finding that their wild utopian theory !
] of a purely metallic currency has almost reduced !
j their forces to » minority now, and would cer-
I laiuly give to the opposition a decisive majority
i in the next Congress, the resolution has been
1 taken to abandon that scheme. If you have seen
I the Globe regularly, you cannot fail to have been
i struck with lit** significant hints given by that '
I journal from time to time of' the intentions of the j
! leaders in this respect. It spoke out decisively in re- i
ply to one of the Uentoniau faction ofVirginia, who, !
not having the right cue, talked in the stvlo lately ■
i so fashionable with the whole crew, about the ad
j vantages of a purely metallic currency. Tho
Globe emphatically said that the remedy propos
ed was "too radical," and followed up this appli
cation of cold water, by a long harangue, on Mr
Tallmadgo’s late letter, in which the impractica
bility of tho specie system is not only distinctly
acknowledged, hut it is impudently said that “nei
t ;cr President Jackson, President l an Bureu,
COLONEL BENTON, nor any oue else hold
ing a prominent station in the democratic patty
ever proposed an exclusive metallic currency!!!’’
1 .Measureless Hor.' It has been the constant bur
den of tiio song of the party to the country. The
, cry of "hard money Government,” was that by
f which they roused their followers lo the battle
; when warring against the currency of the coun
try, and against the industrious classes. It was
, lor ibis humbug that the gallant and devoted Me
Duffle denounced them in one of the most noble
parages of eloquence that ever burst from the
lips of man—worthy of the orators of old, who
had Marathon and SaUtnis for watch words!
No matter for the reckless mendacity of Mr.
1 Van Buren’* organ in this matter—it E enough
■ that he admit* the humbug is abandoned! V« n
Buren has been terrified into tins alteration of hi*
tp-licy. Uives and Tailmadge are in the ascen
dant now. Benton ia not thrown off however,
; nor will be be. Mr. Van Buren cannot alfotd
lo do without both divisions of his parly. The
i hostility cf either branch, be feels, will be hostile
o bint. Hence it ia that while his official organ
gives out that he is not in favor of the metallic
currency, for thv purpose of conciliating Rives
and Talmadge and their friends, it attempts to
show, at the same lime, that there is no difference
I on that subject between these gentlemen and
I Benton! To what shifts is the faction driven! —
! Who does not know thn*. Mr. Tailmadge recently
I denounced Benton and hi* gang as “visionary
j theorists,” and attributed the present distress lo
| their “efforts to impair confidence in the credit
i system, and introduce in its stead, an exclusively
I metallic currency!" Who does not know that
Rives boasted that the object of his currency bill
was to leave a circulation of paper for all sums
over twenty dollars!—that Benton opposed this
hill with violence and rancor at every stage! and
that General Jacksoti, in defiance of the express
ed will of more titan two thirds cf the people’s
representatives, carried it away with him in his
breech’s pocket! Yet with these facts, the Globe
would have us believe that Benton, Tailmadge,
Hives and Jackson have no differences, and that
they are all equally opposed to “a purely metal •
fir currency."
Tho truth is, finding that he cannot get along
with this humbug, Mr. Van Buren has resolved
on another expetiment—a Treasury Bank, found
ed on the revenues of the Government. Already
the powers of the Executive are tremendous. —
Will the people permit this hank lo add to them
the sole management of the currency, unchecked
and irresponsible! if so, this government has
tailed. They are no longer citizens ot a repub
lic—They have reached the last stage of deterio
ration, and arc fit subjects for the bonds of orien
tal despotism! M.
From the A. Y. Evening Font
Mr. Editor.—The long problem in your paper
of yesterday, extracted from the Augusta Sentinel
tor the attlemeilt of John Doe s and Richard Roe’s
speculation, I should suppose might have found
a solution in Georgia. Though no wizard, and
hardly an arithmetician, it struck me at once that
to deduct from one ball ot the number of acres,
tho excess (I-Bth) over the average price that
Doe xvas to give (or the choice of tho land, and
to add to the other half the like deduction (l-8lh)
made in Roe’s favor, to compensate for tho infer
iority of his portion in quality, would give the
relative quantity they would respectively bo en
titled to. The method, on trial, I found gives
Doe 131 35-100 acres and Roe 198 75-10 acres;
which, added together, make the given number
of 300 acres A, B. C,
Tur. Crops.— Tho season has been uncoiri
monly unfavorable, lor a few weeks past, to the
Wheat—and the crop will be much bettei than
was anticipated. It was injured by the winter’s
frost, and the fly early in the spring—and in lire
j Valley of Virginia, particularly in the great wheat
counties of Augusta, Berkeley, Jcilerson, Fau
quier, Ac., it will bo considerably cut short—but
in other parts of.tho Sialo, it lias rallied—and fa
vored us it has •ccntly been by tho cool and
damp weather, will produce a good harvest. —
The produce on some estates will bo very fine—
and the quality every where is cxccllout—per
haps seldom bettor. We learn also more favora
blo accounts from Pennsylvania, New York,
Ohio, Ac.:
“The crops in Northern Pennsylvania promise
an abundant harvest. A paper published in that
section says: v

“A gentleman who has recently passed through
a largo wheat tract of our wy ß . 0 ' ast
three weeks have made an astonf’ffintj' lm P rov ®'
mont in the appearance of the fields. A month
ugo tho prospect was so bad that souk’ hi‘’ lners
ploughed up their fields, but others whicC the’ l
appeared no belter, now give promise of a g ood
crop.”
The Harvest in Virginia will ho carried on with
great spirit during the present week.
The Oats will not be ns fine as they were last
year. They had been much injured early in the
spring; hut recent raina have improved them.—
The Indian Corn is also experiencing the bene
fit of the rains. —Richmond Enq.

THE REMEDY.
Whatever may bo thought of tho proposition
made by tho correspondent of the National Ga
zctle, who writes over the signature of” An Ex
aminer,” in relatien to the United stales Bank
•fPeun-yL'ania,(and wb have exprecsed an oppo
sition to it,) there is no doubt that lie fully au
sweis the illiberal strictures ot the Richmond
Enquirer, and other Royalist presses, as to the
imputed change in his views since 1831.
As lo tins Treasury contrivance, it appears to
us that so far from having any tendency to co
erce the resumption of specie payments by the
Banks, it will have a contrary effect. The view
wo lake of it is this:
The estimated revenues for the current yoai
are s3l 000,000. This perhaps is an over esti-
I male. The appropriations are 33,000,000 of
dollars. The Government, therefore has lo pay
8,000,000 dollars more than it will receive. A
owes at the custom house SIOOO, payable the
first ot July. Tho Government owes B, say
SIOOO for services or supplies. The Treasurer,
I undei his warrtnt, draws a draft in favour of B
ion the Manhattan Company, it is presented.—
The specie is not forthcoming, and such being
endorsed on the draft, it becomes at once as good
as gold or silver, so far as the debts to tho Gov
ernment are concerned. Why should A goto
the broker for specie! Why not to B for tho draft!
The latter is as good as the fogracr. B does not
care for the stiver or gold—for the draft is, by the
! operation of the circular, at as high a premium
as silver or gold. The Banks will not care to is
j sue their specie, far their notes in tho hands of A
i will answer all the purposes of B, and B’s draft,
1 purchased by the notes, will answer all tho pur
poses of A. Thus operating it is not likely that
j Mr. Swartwout’s sliong-box will be filled with
these drafts instead of tho gold and silver! And
I will not tho whole effect he to substitute tho pre
j cions netals by these floating drafts, making them
j a new currency fur the country!
Wo will not now inquire into the authority of
i the Treasury Department thus to create a now
| circulating medium in place of the “ constitution
at currency," without the authority of Congress;
hut that the scheme is calculated rather to incrcse
than diminish the paper promises, teems to us
very evident Tiro Banks,with whose notes those
| drafts are purchased, lose nothing; on the contra
!ry they gain. For, supposingjlhe disbursements
i to be made in thes drafts, wc shall have at the
I end of the year $32,000,1100 of these draffs; §24,-
000,000 are in the hands of the collectors and re
ceivers, and $8,000,000 in the hands of brokers
and speculators, if the operation do not stimulate
speculation and overtrading again; in which case,
they might rise lo a premium of 8 ot 10 per cent.
But pul them down at 7 per cent. This upon
$33,000,000,the amount of appropriations, would
ho $3,210,000. Du the banks lose anv of this!
Not at all —on the contrary, they gain * the in
creased issues, which the Treasury scheme thus
stimulates them to make. They arc indeed
I compelled by the scheme lo issue 3,219,000
mote than they otherwise would do; and if this
be so, it seems to us a strange mode of coercing a
resumption of specie payment?.
Wc throw out these reflections hastily, as they
a
t j present themselves to us. Wc proles* to know
but little cf these matter;; and tuey be in an error.
We short’d he pleased lo see ‘An Examiner"
' uke up the scheme a little more in detail; trac-
J iug it out, in his own clear and peculiar manner,
e to its final results.

Every exertion was made, every nerve strain

s Frwmthe N. O. True American, June 29.
t Monday night last was marked by some of the
. most atrocious acts that the long catalogue of
I crime possesses. Two deliberate and cold blood
. ed murders, and a violent endeavor at a third,
1 Stained its few hours of darkness, In the first
. municipality one of the night guard, a French
. man named Mole, was most barbarously bulcher
. cd by some ruffian who must have meditated
. I tile act for some time, since the evidence proves
, j that the sufferer was shot by a gun, not by a pis
tol, proving clearly that the villain must have gone
j home for his weapon of blood. We regrit to say
L the wretch] has hitherto escaped detection. In
tlie second municipality another act of cruel and
, Col >l murder was perpetrated by one Bailey, a
. carpenter, on the person ofa Mr. Miller or Muller,
f The murderer met his victim near the junction
; . him with some domestic injury the other had
. done him, told him he would instantly shoot him;
so runs tho tale. The other begged hard for his
t life, but that useless, turned to fly, when
i- he was shot through tlie body. Several persons
c are said to have been near at the time of the deed,
or came up on tho instant of its fulfilment, and
|, saw tho ruffian re-load—hut by tho time tho po
ll lico came, tho murderer had escaped. As yet he
i- has eluded pursuit, but we hope for the credit of
|, our municipality, he will not long remain con
s ccalcd. A watchman near the new canal, was
i also nearly killed by an attack of many infuriated
J B oplo.

“We i.oam that on Sunday night an attempt was
made by . lwo villain* to rob the express mail, be
' tween Ball’s Cross roads and Abingdon. The
rider, on approaching a spot where a brush fence
was placed across -he road, perceived something
moving before him wht.’h induced him to come to a

a wood and attempted to seiz.’ him. His horse
however, broke from their hold al >d cleared the
