TO K. A. E.
Say, dost thou fondly cherish still
One image bright of other days?
Doth grief at time* thy bosom thrill,
When mem’iy, all that was, portray*’
And dost thou yet remember one,
Whose days on earth indeed were few.
Whose morning proved life'* setting sun.
That soon was clouded from thy view!
One whom the muses did inspire,
To strike the harp-string’s loftier strains.
With all the glow of youthful fire.
To paint the scones where fancy reigns’
Whose youthful form before thee stood,
With bcighl'ningcharms of beamy dreat,
The admiration of the good.
By every friend esteem’d and blest.
And didat thou watch that lovely form.
Till pale disease had swept away
Those graces—till the winter’s storm
Os death had cast its blighting spray
O’er all that once had brightly shone.
Save those deep beauties of the mind ;
They, when each earthly charm had down,
JStill brighter grew, and more refin’d.
Hay, didst thou close the faded eyes,
When the free spirit took its flight,
To seek a humc mid fairer dries,
Illum’d by heavens unfadvd light!
And when the pale and lifeless clay
Was to its resting place consigned,
Didst thou behold it borne away,
And feel thy soul to heaven resigned!
And dost thou still, amid the gloom
Os Autumn, when the billows wave
In silence o’er (tin lonely tomb,
(so stand beside the pact’s grave?
W hen nn unfriendly form ia near,
Kneel down beside the cherished spot,
In deepest silence drop a tear.
And whisper, "Ifovget thee nut!"

INCIDENTS IN THE LIFE OF COMMO
DORE UAINHRIDUE.
The Tkipoi.itan Knoaokmenr—ms Im
prisdmmknt—Lettish to ms Wikis—Like,
etc.—Thu Lift! of the lain Commodore
Uaiiibrulgn, recently published, contains the
following interesting facia connected with
the history of the Tripolitan war, and oilier
incidents of big life.
In 1803, Captain B.iinhrnlgewas ordered
to the command of the frigate I’lnladelpliia,
to cruise in the Mudillorranean fur the pur
pose of making pngos of the vessels of the
Tripolitans, Ihe Bashaw of Tripoli having re
cently declared war against the U. States.
Alter cruising with some success, he experi
enced the most severe calamity of Ins profes
sional life—tits stranding and capture of his
ship, winch was followed hy a cruel and pro
tracted imprisonment of the officers and crew
in the dungeons of Tripoli. The disaster is
well narrated in his oilioial Idler. * * *
A letter to Ins wife presents, in a very
agreeable light, the character of liiiinhndge
disencumbered of all ollicial formality, and
wo are, tliorelore, the hotter pleased to quote
it as a freer expression of his feelings.
“TRIPOLI. Nov. I, 1803,
My dear Susan: With feelings of distress
which I cannot describe, I have to inform you
that I have lost the beautiful frigate which was
placed under my command, by running her a
foul of rucks, a lew miles to the cast of this
harbor, which are not marked in the charts.
As cr defending her as long ns u ray of hope
remained, I was jh'iged to surrender and am
now with my ollicers ami crew confined in a
prison in this place. I enclose to yon a copy
of my ollicial lei ter to the Secretary of the
Navy, from which yon will learn all the cir
cumstances in detail connected with our cap
ture.
“My anxiety and iillliclions duos not arise
from my confinement and deprivitatinns in
prison—these, indeed,l could bear if ten limes
more severe; but n is caused by my absence,
which may boa protracted one, from my dear
ly beloved Susan; and an apprehension,which
constantly haunts me, that I may be censured
by my cmiiitiyinen. Those impressions, which
are seldom absent from my mind, act ns n cor
roding canker a< my heart. >So maddened am
I sometimes hy the workings of my imagina
tions, that I cannot retrain front exclaiming
that it would have been a merciful dispensation
nf Providence if my head had been shot off by
the enemy while our vessel lay rolling on the
rocks.
“Von now see, my beloved wife, the cause
of my distress—my situation in prison is en
tirely supportable—l have found here kind
and generous friends, such as I hope the vir.
tqotis will meet m till situations ; but if my
professional character bo blotched—if an at*
tempt bo made to taint my honor—if lam cen
sured,if it docs kill me, it woold|ut least deprive
mo of the (tower of looking any ot my race in
t he face, always excepting,however, my young,
kind, and sympathizing wile. If the world
desert me, I am sure to find a welcome in her
arms—in her affection to receive the support
and condolence which none others can give.
“1 cannot tell why I am so oppressed with
apprehension—l am sure 1 acted according to
my best judgement—my ollicers tell mo that
my conduct was laulilees —:tint no one, m
deed, could have dono better ; but this I attri
bute (perhaps in my weakness) to a gener
ous wish on their part to sustain me in my
affliction.
“1 hope soen to hearthat you health is good
and although grieved fat my misfortune, are
yet surrounded by dear and consoling friends',
who will, in some measu.e, assuage your af
fliction. Perhaps,loo, you will be able to tell
me that I have done injustice to my country
men—that so far from censuring, they sym
pathize,and some even applaud me. (iod grant
that this may be the ease—and why should
it not! The Americans are generous as they
are brave. 1 must stop, my dear wife, for I
me I am disclosing my weakness—these are
the mere reveries which daily pass through
mv heated brain,
‘i beg that you will not suppose our imprison
ment is attended with suffering; on the con
trary, it is, as 1 have oliuady assured you, quite
n so importable state.
“Your ever faithful anti affectionate husband.
"Wickum Bkaixbuidoe.
“Mrs. Susan Brainbridge, Perth Amboy.”
The details of the captivity would occupy
too much of our limits; we cannot, however,
lake leave ot the subject without adverting
to sonic circumstances which, for the honor
of human nature; n is delightful to dwell up
on. The prisoners were not abandoned to
their own fortitude and mutual cheering to
hear up under the weary sufferings of a cap
tivity in a heathen oilidel. 'Hey found
friends from whom they received a most uf
feci innate solicitude, a feeling springing m
one instance frotnlhe sympathy ot Christian
ity, and in another tram the native sympathy
of Immunity. The Danish consul, Mr. Nis
»en,a man of must active snd fearless bene
volence, proved, during their captivity, his in
valuable friendship, and rendered to them ser
• vices which Congress was afterwards well em
ployed in acknowledging by a vote of thanks.
The heart of the other Iriend o llhe captive
sailors beat, where they could have least ex
pected it; beneath a Moorish garb: a truer K
end more Christian chanty could not have j'
• ,
been man.tested lh.«n hv tl.s kindness ot one
of the Tripolitan ministers of state, Sidi Mo
hammad Dgheta, wlio anxiously sought every
occasion to alleviate the sufferings of the pri
soners—pledged the lile of hi* son for the
sanctity of Brambndge’s parols of honor—and
at length, by hia statesman-like decision,
brought the captivity to its termination.”
Captain Bainbndge’a mind was not inactive
while he was immured in the dungeons ol
Tripoli where he conceived a project for the
destruction of his captured frigate, which, by
the agency of hia friend, the benevolent Dane,
he communicated to commodore Preble.—
The accomplishment of the plan by Decatur
was one of the most intrepid and distinguish
ed exploits upon our Naval annsal, ami the
weight of some weary hours of a cruel cap
tivity was probably lightened by the reflection
that the captive was able by the sugges ion,
still to render good service to his coun'ry. —
Captain Bsinbndge took occasion also to in
dicate to Commodore Preble a plan for the
bombardment of Tripoli’ which was affected
in a manner well calculated to reduce the Ba
shaw to terms of peace. The Government
had adopted a wiser policy than sending ships
as hearers of tribute. Tne letters from Com
modore Preble to Captain Bambridgc, during
thin period, afford conclusive evidence at once
us the admirable conduct of the latter in the
season of his adversity, and of the generous
arid kindly spirit of toe former, who has left
tlie memory of one of the most accomplished
. and g« lain officers of our early Navy.
The officers and erew of the Philadelphia
after enduring a captivity protracted to up
wards of nineteen months, were set at liberty
and the first use of their recovered freedom
displayed a trait us the seamen’s character—
that strange compound of the stormy longue
and the weather-beaten brow with a melting
tenderness of heart. The expiration of a
nineteen months’captivity furnished the sad
ors with a superabundance of happiness,
which, sailor-likc, they proceeded at once to
disburse like the accumulated pay of n three
yeara’ service.
"During the captivity of our countrymen,
and sonic months previously to Ilia conclusion
o( the treaty ot peace, the imprisoned sailors
and marines informed Captain Brainbridge
by letter that one of their keepers, n Neapoli
tan, treated them with great humanity and
kindness, and that they were desirous of re
ciprocating the favors which he had so gene
rously bestowed upon them. This keeper
being a slave and anxious like themselves to
he libeinted they requeued their eomniiinder
to authorize the pursuer to advance from the
pay then due to tlinin the sum of seven hun
dred dollars, the ainoi.’nt then demanded for
’ I.is freedom. Ho soon as they were informed
’ that peace was concluded their application
! was renewed,' and in obedience to their
' wishes the money advanced them hy the pur
suer; the benevolent slave V-as redeemed Irom
. bondage and conveyed in s.'fety l l - bis native
country in one of our national vessels. When
’ our sailors and their Irccdoinan ’‘operated at
’ Naples, a poignancy of feeling was exhibited
which wonld have done honor to those w l |o
move in more elevated walks of life, and -v fi°
pretend to r» ore refinement ofsenliment."- -
p. 120.
During a furlough which had been granted
to him, Capt. Uainbridgo returned In the mer
chant service, and was in the city of Hi. Pe
tersburg, entrusted with nn important mer
cantile iiegocintion, when he received intelli
gence in 1811 of the threatening difficulties
between the United Stales ahd Great ilntian.
By a desperate journey in the depth of win
ter, ho travelled from the nurih us Europe, and
without a day’s heedless delay, einhuiked for
the United States to report himself for active
service which he was enabled to do in the ear
ly part of IHI2.
That the government, should not, previous
ly to the lute war, have foil that confidence in
the naval arm of national defence, which was
established hy the success of that contest, is
not. surprising. We were aware that when
Capt. Hull'sailed on his cruise in the Con
stitution, the letter of instructions which he
received from the Navy Department, was ol
the most caution-teaching description. The
remarkable stress hud upon the jeopardy of
bringing his ship into action, would wu think,
have justified the gallant ollicor to his superi
ors, it when he encountered the Gunrrierc, in
all the untamed pride ufllie Itrnisli Navy, he
had relied on the sailing rather than the fight
ing qualities of "Old Ironsides." The Sec
retary of the Navy obviously never anticipated
that our favorite frigate would wsn her well
known title—ho would have been quite con
tent. if she had returned into perl ns “Old
Swiftsuro” The extent ol tho timidity which
prevailed in the councils us the national cxecu
live is, however, more strongly developed by
u fact brought to light m the present (memoir,
for we do nut re.oiled to have seen it else
where recorded.
“After remaining in Washington a few
weeks, during the deliberation of Congress on
the subject of a declaration of war against
Great Britain,he was ordered to the command
of the Navy Yard at Cliarleatown, Massa
chusetts. Before leaving the seat us govern
ment, he Icarucd with infinite regret and mor
tification, that in a cabinet council, it was de
termined that our vessels of war should lie
placed in ordinary! as it was deemed unwise
to jeopard our few frigates and sloops of war
in a contest witli tho gigantic navy us our en
emy. Capt, Bsinbndge consulted Captain
Charles Stewart, who was also then in Wash
ington, on the propriety us remonstrating a
gainst this measure. They accordingly drew
up a letter to the Secretary of the Navy,
winch both signed, staling in forcible lan
guage, ilmt such a course would have a most
chilfinp and unhappy eftect on the spirit of
our officers. The effect on the people of the
United Slates, would be, an unwillingness
hereafter, to support the expense ot a Navy,
which had been thus pronounced useless du
ring a period of national peril. They further
staled, that our vessels, by sailing singly .might
materially injure the commerce of the enemy,
and that in any conflict with an equal force,
they were very sure the result would redound
to the honor of our If we were even
to lose some of onr vessels of war, it would be
belter to do so, than that they should b. in
glonuusly laid up in harbor,wh le other brunch- ,
es of the service were gallantly contending
in the field. From the high discipline of our
Navy, aim from the eagerness of our officers
and crews for the contest, they felt perfectly
assured that if our vessels did not prove inva
riably triumphant, they would certainly never
disgrace themselves or the nation. This let
ter had its effect. Our men of war were per
mitted to cruise, and the result has shown the
truth of their predictions.
" Commodore Htewart happened to be in
the navy department at Washington, when
Midshipman Hamilton arrived, as hearer of ,
despatches from Commodore-Decatur, com
manding the frigate United Stales, with the
flag of the Macedonian, which he had cap
tured.
“After the usual congratulations, occasion- 1
ed by the news of the third victory gained in ;
a few months over the enemy, Mr. Hamilton, ,
then Secretary of the Navy, remarsed. "We
are indebted to Bambridgc and yourself for
these flags and victories. Had it not been
for your strong remonstrance, not a vessel of 1
war belonging to the Government, would have i
left its anchorage."—pp. 134—136. I
There is a story ns old as the “ Faceliit ” of (
that Grecian Joe Miller, Hierocles ot the wis
dom of a fond mother, who forbade her son to 1
venture into water before he knew how to 1
•wire. The Government of the United States
was very near giving, upon a large scale, <
another instance of the same sort of sagacity i ,
and was, it appears only saved from playing
i. he old woman by the spirited remonstrance '
’ reVred to in the quotation. The untoward ’
loss *f that document, which was destroyed
mthe c integration of die Navy Department,
in 1611, ta modi to be deplored for ilia loot re
it would re fleet on the memory of a deceased
i officer, and on the honor of the survivor. Each
I of them, and in the same honored ■ahip* moat
, gloriously redeemed the pledge which was im
plied, if not expressed, in their remonstance.
: It was Commodore Stewart’s peculisr for-
I tune,-by the engagement between the Consti
s tution and the Cyane and I-evant, which resul
’ led in die capture of two British sloops of
, war, to elevate the reputation of the service not
■ only for courage, but for nautical talent and sbili
r ty, and at the same lime, to establish an impertant
. principle in naval tactics. The capture of the
( Java by the Constitution gave to Gommedore
, Bainbridge the renown of one of the leading vie
i tones, of the war. Our apace does not allow ua to
' dwell upon the details of it, Sc we can only remark
I that the battle was not belter fought than the vie
. lory was nobly used. It was a conflict which
, aerveil so show that, contary to the opinion of ■
j aigniflicant old writer, a sea victory may have, ai
much honor as one achieved by land, and that .the
laurel got at sea has as lively a veidute as that
which is gained on shore.
It is an excellent taste that Dr. Harris has giv
’ * n > in the memoir, great prominence to the per
sonal intercourse between Commodore Bain
bridge amt those whom the fortune of war placed
II in ln« power. The description ofil is in admira
-1 hie relief to the narrative of hostilities ; and eape
i ciully at the present day, when theanimoai.iea of
1 the war have given place to the kindly and true
feeling which is mutually cultivated by the two
countries, it is pleasing to pass from estimate* of
. killed and wounded to interchanges of the hu-
I inanities of life. The strong personal esteem
snd even affection entertained for Commodore
. Bainhtjilge by his prisoners ol war, did great ho
i nor to his character.
r '
* We have observed a notice of the death of thi*
estimable individual, -Viili Mohammed Dgheis, at
Smyrna. Alba having tilled some important sta
, lions under the Ottoman government, he was occn
i pied, during the biller twelve years of his life, in
, j the discharge of some editorial functions and left
I hi-hind him the memory of his friendship to the

THE BOAT RACE!
No event since the departure of the Volunteers
fo.' Florida, has drawn together such a crowd of
thn cu'ztnsof Augusta, os the Boat Race which
had been previously announced to lake place yes
terday evening', ul * la,f P ast *'* o'clock. Long
before the appoin t'd l'"ur, ollhough a lowering
cloud threatened a lies V v rall of rai "' all ll,u ,lreeU
mid avenue* loading in lb ' direction of the river
began to be thronged by groiij ,S| mov ' n S w an ‘
iniuleil steps, and bcgono-dull-ca. " countenances,
towards the scene of anticipated ritn,; T - ® u(dl *
thing hud never been witnessed at Au t ’ U6,a lta
novelty created a thrilling interest in ev, ,,r V
aunt. Here'might ho seen a bevy of ladies— °* d
mid young—the worthy matron ami the blooming i
maiden, their faces radiant with smiles, their ho
sums throbbing with anxiety—there, treading
with (km and onward pace, the man of years—
with elastic step, the pride of manhood and the
buoyant youth—yonder, whole troops and squad
rons of noisy, laughing, jovial bays! Such a
scene! All Augusta was literally in commotion! ,
By the appointed hour of starting, the lower i
bridge—the goal, the punctual salient,vim filled,
mid the hanks and wharves above, on hath sides
of the river, lined with spectators, amounting in |
all, we should suppose, to not less than two thou
sand persons, of all ages, sexes anil complexions.
The moment approaches, the boats are at their
stations under the bridge, and the uplifted oar
signifies that all are ready. A breathless silence
pervades the multitude, the signal word is sound
ed, the oar drops into its clement, the music
strikes up its animating strains, and the pealing
shout of the spectators, announces that they are
off!
The Red Michael having the choice of stations
nt the starting point, selects the current of the ri
ver as necessary to her great draft of water, and
is consequently nearest the Carolina side) the
Pioneer takes the middle ground, and the Miner
va neatest the Georgia shore. A few strokes of
the our place the Minerva ahead, the Pioneer
next, and indicate that the Red Michael must lose
the race. The latter boat, having to stem the
current in order to avoid itriking on the sand
bars, just undtr the surface of the water, in the
gentlest part of the stream, added to her width of
construction and shortness, labored under great
disadvantages. The same msy bo said of the
Pioneer to some extent; she having actually drag
ged through the soft sands for a short distance,
in endeavoring to avoid the current Her lighter
draff and narrow construction gave to the Miner
va a decided advantage. Nor was it left unavail
ed. Beautifully ahe glided through her own ele
ment—straight as the arrow's course, sped from
an Indian's bow, was her’s—steady ai the step of
time itself, and long, the pull of her crew—scarce
ly a wave broke from her prow—not a sound wts
heard, save the dip of her oars, a* light as “the
feather d foot of lime,”
“She walked the water like a thing of life."
Nor was the Pioneer idle. The sand bar pass
ed, the current left, her noble crew with "lusty
sinews” buffetled the resisting element—the while
loam gushed-rirom her rut-water, catclung the
strong stroke of her oars as she gallantly dashed
ahead in pursuit of her flying antagonist The
Red Michael—she too has passed the sandbar
and gained the stiller water —the long, strong and
s teady pull of her oars would have told upon any
other craft hut her, and showed thatthe boat could
be heat, but not the crew. Fourteen and a half
minutes have passed—the Minerva has reached
the upper bridge, the turning point, and circling
round the arch, is on her homeward course.
Scarce has her stern left the trch, when the bow
of the Pioneer cuts the space between the bridge
and the water, on her way up. and turning to the
Carolina side, is in the wake of the Minerva, “de
termined to do or die.” The Red Michael hav- ,
ing yet 160 yards io make, up stream, while both '
her competitors were pulling with the current, 1
the race now became evidently confined to the
two last. The trim built of the Minerva was now j
no advantage to her—the Pioneer gains upon her! (
They come—closer and closer, and still they •
come. Now they are opposite the crowded 1
wharves—Minerva still ahead, Pioneci still gain- (
ing—mingled shouts burst from the from the! i
multitude, "Ptoncei!’’ “Minerva!'" “Hum!” j t
(
" I T*-
The Pioneer bug- the Carolina shore, snd there
by gets decidedly the advantage of the strongest
current. They pas* the lower platform of the
wharf on the Hamburg side— a few feet only di
♦hit) them — a shoot, a* if buriling from the very
hdtoms Os the Carolinians, rends the air, “Huzza!
pull. Pioneer, pilll!!” Now they approach the
bridge—now comes the last lug —the death strug
gle of one to hold her slight Advantage, and of
the other to turn the scale. What a moment of
anxiety and excitement! A breathless silence per
vade* the multitude, savn here snd there an in
voluntary shout of “Pioneer!" responded by “Mi
nerva!!” The animating music is again struck
up—the point m made — amid the shouts of the
multitude the goal is passed, and the MINERVA
is the victor, by scarcely a length!! Time 23 j
minutes.
The host* were pulled to the shore, where con
gratulations to the victors, and compliments to
the vanquished, were freely and heartily offered |
by such a* could yet near enough to perform that
friendly office. i
After turning the upper bridge, the Red Mi- 1
chaet gave up the contest; her crew rowing her '
leaaurely to the lower bridge—performing the ,
whole distance up and down in 28 J minutes. It
is due to them to say, that she is nothing but a i
common yawl, belonging to the steam boat Free 1
. Trade, altogether incapable of being rowed with
success by any crew, against cither of the other
boats. Their only object in running her was to
add to the sport, without a hope of winning the
prize. No one who saw their manly exertions
under so many disadvantages, doubts that with a
better host, they would have proved thcinselve H
equal to their worthy competitors.
Long may boat racing lie encouraged ! It is a
noble, interesting, snd innocent amusement.—
The multitude assembled yesterday evening will
bear testimony to this. Our river is a race ground
always in order.
In the evening atlhe Theatre, the Silver Cup
and Salver, were presented to the Minerva Club,
by Mrs. Hart, and received by Captain Curtis,
who mads a few appropriate remarks in reply.
[FROM OtJH CORRESPONDENT.]
Washinoton, July 15th, 1837.
A new paper is to be set on fool in this city, in
the beginning of August, called "the Madisoni
an,” which is intended to supplant the Glolic us
the organ of the government. This is a move
ment of Messrs. Poinsett, Rives and Talimadgc,
by whom the Globe has long been regarded us
an offensive nuisance. The prospectus has al
ready appeared—is very decisive and emphatic
in its reprobation of the ultra doctrines of the
Benloniati faction, locofocos, and destructives;
and declares the necessity of there being “a new
organ at the acat of government,” established on
sound principles, which will represent faithfully,
and not dictate, the policy of the administration,
and the sentiments and views of its supporters.
The Globe is of course highly indignant at this
intrusion on its manor, and attempts to discredit
the new organ. But it will not do. There is a
laigc portion of the party who are quite disgusted
with the inode of warfare so long carried on by
the Globe, and who have desired nothing so much
as that that infamous print should be put aside
by Mr. Van Buren, It will be icinemhcrcd that
when the Globe was established, Blair declared it
was for the purpose only of aiding Duff Green’s
Telegraph, then the organ of the administration, 1
in preserving the integrity of the democratic par
ty. The Globe, however, soon superseded the '
in the favor and patronage of all who
kep> ' * ie * r p y ea f |xe d on “'he rising sun;” and, in
like ma "' ncr i nmv that it is manifest the security
of the ndi 'inistration is hazarded by an adher

thority of the judiciary generally, dl dlfi °l , ' ,I ' on

Amos Kendall. It has proved itself at lim
awed or influenced by power. It has gi, anted a
writ of peremptory mandamus against the rv *‘ ar
tmy Post Master General, returnable on the I*. dl
of August. An eailier day would have been fix
ed upon, hut the Court docs not sit again till that 1
time, and the present session has been unusually d
long. Mr. Kendall will appeal to the Supreme „
Court. Would to heaven that the great and good n
Marshall were alive still, to preside over that tri- a
bunal! No fear would be then entertained for the e
security of the citizen against the insolence and r i
encroachments of power. With Taney presid- n
ing, it is difficult to say what new doctrines may Jj
be resorted to, in order to sustain the pretensions Q
of the arogant demagogue at the head of the Post /■

Messrs. Stockton & Stokes have had an ani

Van Buren will lake no responsibility that bo can ®
avoid, and will not therefore interfere in the mat

The President found the “While House” ai
growing so unwholesome, owing to its proximity *'
to the Tiber Creek, that he has abandoned it for
a pleasant country residence, a few miles from the a

Whilst sinking from this world's terrestrial shore,

Thy stifled prayer was heard above the strife,
Receive me l-ord, to Everlasting Life.

FLORIDA.
The Tallahasse Floridan of Blh inst, has the
following.
"And express from San Pedro arrived last eve
ening with despatches to the Governor, from
Captain R.D. Biadley commanding the Madison
county troops, giving an account of a spirited
scout made by a parly under his command, from
the 29th ultimo to the 3d inst.” in pursuit of a
baud of Indians which had crossed theSuwannee,
and been plundering the plantaliens and stock ol
settlers in Madison. The Indians Were closely
trailed across the Suwannee several miles and
three different parlies attacked, In every in
stance the Floridans whipped them and forced
them to fly to the hammocks. Captain B recover
ed considerable of the plundered property, retook
several cattle, mules &,c. and captured several po
ntes and packs Two Indians were killled and
scalped, and it is known several others were se
verely wounded. The notorious and cruel chief
John Hicks, the murderer of Mrs. Wallace and
her family it is thought has met his just fate.—
Several ol the parly lireti upon and badly wound
ed an Indian greatly resembling him, but he
escaped into a hamni c!<, and colU not 1 e found.
Fortunately none of U’s command received h jury
from the Indian rifle, although Mr. A Goodwin
had his horse shot from under him, and was hurt
by his fall. Captain U, and his officers and men
ate entitled to great credit for their gallantly, in
trepidity and activity.
“ Captain Bradley writes that there appears to
he “considerable signs of Indians on the Suwan
nee, and trails where they have been driving cat
tle recently towards the upper part of the Sawan
nee Hammock and Deadman’s Bay,” The ex
press stales that all the powder horns taken
from the Indians, and they were several, were full
of the finest glazed fresh powder,—None of the
new levies have got into the field as yet, although
part of them arc on theii march ; and the whole
foiee now on the frontier this side of the Suwan
nee, is hut eighty men. The settlers anticipate
constant attacks all this summer and fall from
predatory hands ; hut as they arc now prepared,
they are not alarmed.”
Steamer Bek Sherrod,— On Wednesday
last, the 28th June, at the month of the Buffalo
Creek, one mile and a halt above Fort Adams,
the bodies of 21 persons were picked up by some
of the citizens of that place. There is no doubt
but that they are a part of the large number that
met their untimely and horrid end at that awful
catastrophe, the burning of the Bon Sherrod. The
clothes on some of the bodies were much burnt.
In the number were two ladies, one of whom had
a child, which a mother’s fondness and a mother’s
despair had so encitcled with her left arm, that
even in death it remained pressed to that bosom
where it could no longer find protection.—Not

The Boat Race.— The trial of speed between
the Skarrift and the Phoenix, came oll'ycs
terday evening at the appointed hour, termina
ting in favor of the former. The time was 12m.
50s. and by the latter, 4 minutes. The Seadrill
was manned by six very handsome, spirited
young fellows, (the ladies called them “pretty
hoys,”) and the Phoenix by four athletic gentle
men, more advanced, all acknowledged and ex
perienced amateurs. The contest, though too
easily won by the Scadrift to inspire that deep in
terest and breathless anxiety, often felt by specta
tors on similar occasions, was not without its
pleasures to all. The spectators enjoyed, the
successful competitors were delighted and thank
in the Champaigne and ladies smiles and glan
ces (ye Gods! what an intoxicating draught!)
with such unrestrained profusion as to turn the
eyes and mouths of many a wishful by-stander
into fountains ofliving water ; while their less
fortunate companions, like ancient Romans in
thetr grave dignity and while shirts, cheered with
those who were cheery and drank to their own
better success hereafter.
The aspect of rain detained many al home who
were exceedingly anxious to witness the novel
scene—novel at least on the water of the Ala
bama, where a like event has never before occur
red. The wharves, decks of steamboats and ves
sels were covered, and along the whole extent of

STILL LATER FROM LIVERPOOL.- - THE
STORM THICKENING.
Through the polilieness of our Boston cor, cs '
pendent, we are enabled to lay before our reader 8
additional information from Europe. At this
trying moment,every item ofintelligenceis looked
for with increased interest.
The brig Old Coloney, Capt. Crosby, arrived
at Boston on the evening of the 14th instant, to
the 6th of Juno and London to the sth. ,
In the Liverpool Mail, of the 6lh June, the .
merchants of this country are most mercifully
abused for their withholding remittances, and the i
accusation is stated in round terms, that they
have wantonly and purposely swindled the mer
chants andpnanufacturers of England, of a sum
not less than seven millions of pounds sterl
ing. The same paper also asserts that it is part
and portion of our policy to swindle, and cheat
and deceive! What is more, says the same Jour
mil, the laws of the United States are made for the
purpose of swindling Europe! !
In this foolish indulgence of spleen, we see
more of truth than is imagined. That the mer
cantile community of America should take care
of themselves first, is one of the great laws of
self-preservation—that they have attempted to do
so, and signally failed, is unquestionably true—
but that they entertained any settled design of
cheating the merchants, and manufacturers of
England out of their just dues, is maliciously i
false, and the Liverpool Mail knew it when he
penned the furious tirade, from which we have i
fiven extracts. Let him look at home ! Have ;
not the British merchants, almost in a Irody, re- I
fused to honor bills drawn on them from this i
;ounlry,predicated on actual shipments of produce i
-received the produce—sold it—and applied
he moneys so received to the , payment k of their I
ifbt» ? And was not this done without the i
tnowledge or permission of our shippers 1 i
A hat is all this but a wanton violation of all I
ommcrcial faith! No.no, let the English t
uerchant pluck the beam out of his own eye, t
nd then tell us of our imperfections. We have
aid, and are now paying, the whole of our debt
» them at a most painful sacrifice. Because I
-ngland is destined to suffer, and that 100 most 1
evercly, her journalists are trying to throw the t
lame on us. Shame gentlemen! You have c
vertraded overhanked, and overdone things, as s
re" a. Americans. Reap the hitler fruits of c
our fo'ly. A. hitter cup it will be, for tve have
jsl finished our hanest. ,
The Mail uyt, that “certain Diroclori of the
i Dink of Bnftad held piper of the American
i houses which they supported until their peper
was paid, and that as soon as they were free
themselves, they toted against any additional aid
to the concerns which they had previously favor
ed and propped!!" NoMe and disinterested
conduct! Yet these are the preachers of com
mercial morals. ,

I MONEY MARKET,
Saturday, July id.
The United States is evidently on the top of
the first billow of returning prosperity provided
i Congress will act discreetly. The revulsion
. commencing its fatal career in England, will be
i the signal for the reconstruction in this hemis
■ phere. The diseases which have afflicted the
commercial world have been alike on both conti
nents, but ours, having reached the bottom first,
1 will first feel the effect of a change.
The condition of things in England, and among
‘ the large commercial cities in Europe, present a
phenomenon in the history of commerce.
I In addition to the numerous failures in London,
1 large failures have also taken place in Hamburgh,
■ in Paris and in several other cities of the conti
■ nent. The breaking up of the American Houses
* in London will also cause the bankruptcy of large
> masses in all the manufacturing towns of En
’ gland.
The causes producing these effects, on both
1 sides of the Atlantic, are identical.
On the accession of the Whig party to power
in England, an opposition was made to the re
newal of the Bank, which was not overcome
without a compromise, embracing the creation of
! a numerous progeny of joint stock banks in every
part of England, in the United Stales, a similar
' opposition, springing from a similar cause, the
interest of private estate bankers, was made to the
renewal of the United Slates Bank. The Na
tional Bank in England was renewed—ours was
vetoed and destroyed. The consequence was, a
1 flood of new hanks in both countries; but greater
and Wider in this country, as there was no nation
al bank to check them. It is a singular fact that
the joint stock banks of England, and the stale
banks in this country, though nominally passing
by different names, are in truth the same in effect
and in operation.
The slate banks here affected to redeem in spe
cie on demand—the English joint slock banks to
redeem in London paper, which, in practise,
amounted to the same thing.
While public confidence remained, the sudden
increase of paper’money, nominally redeemable
in specie, did not produce any material injury.
Its evil effects required to come to maturity.
Based on this system of currency, the foreign and
domestic trade, of both hemispheres, increased
during the years 1834, ’5, and’6, beyond any
former example in history. The ex tension of <he
foreign trade, among all commercial nations, kept
pace with the stimulus furnished by the several
banking systems. That species of currency, which
circulates between nations, called foreign bills of
exchange, increased in an equal ratio with that of
the internal currency of bank notes.
In this state of things, the Bank of England
an old institution o( a hundred years standing
perceived that a general disturbance had been
caused in prices, values, and the foreign ex
changes, by some momentum of an unusual
p ower. That institution has always been con
du. ~ed b y practical men—not visionaries; & hence
the i ”*son of their famous series of movements
to che*. general speculation in 1836. In this
country > iur national bank was just then forced
out of exit *ence, and all restrictions taken off the
action of » u r state hanks in pouring out more
currency—ano that of oar legislatures in crew,
ting new ones, in England under a genetal
banking law, thejoi.n stock system increased walk
the same rapidity as eur slate bank system The
Bank of England interposed a check to‘the ca
reer of the paper system, nominally founded on
a specie basis, but in fact, a mere bubble from
hemisphere to hemisphere. The first germ of
the great revulsion, the shocks of which are yet
heaving throughout n,e world, was developed in
England It gradually reached this countlyTand
produced the crisis that began with the Josephs,
Th»r M. W “ h ,h t BU8 P enßio " of specie payments!
That intelligent* has just reached Europe, and is
producing its natural effects throughout the
frame of society on the other
side of the Atlantic.
We, therefore anticipate a terrible state of
hTI* , L E cS pe -. I . t * 8 probable, however, that
the Bank of England, conducted on sounder prin
cip es than the joint stock banks, may interfere
and save a portion of the commercial system of
that country. The stale of commercial disor
gamzalion, and complete confusion in which we
find ourselves in the United States, does not an
pear to exist in England. They must face a
terrible crisis, but they have a banking institution
inex.stence.c.pab'e and willing to reconstruct
heir foreign and demesne trade. In thiscoun- ‘
try we have noauch institution, and hence the
continued prostration and confusion ofeommer- ,
cial affairs long after the crisis is over.
It is perfectly clear, that the failure of the hou- "
se *l n Hatnburgh, on the continent, have been
produced by the compulsory measures of the
Bank of England, to cause a reflux of the specie I
to the great mart of the world. When the Hunk
Os England found that they could no. gef S I
Sr C ° Untry ‘ hey dreW i! f ">“ “>e *
It is evident from this brief view of th* cause h
which led.to this revulsion, that th e cgtasftoph "
5 ,
I wat Unavoidable. The United Slates having n o
national banking institution, conducted on strict
' principles of science, was the first to feel the es
-1 frets of the revolution, and will be the last to get
1 out of the depression caused by a vicious St expan
• dml system of stale banking St foreign exchanges.
I In England, the government dt the national bank
' act together—end in consequence will be able to
recover from the earthquake rapidly. Here, with
' out the action of Congress, and the creation of a
1 new mational bank, we shall languish in confu
sion for years.
It is possible that the revulsion has caused
bankruptcies throughout the world equal to
$500,000,000. In the single article of foreign
bills of exchange the following may be slated as
i the amount annihilated:
• Bills of Exchange in Europe, $150,000,000
I “ “ India. 50,000,000
> “ “ Amcrca, 60,000,000
i •
: $250,000,000
The annihilatiuti us this amount of the foreign
paper currency «f the world, and the contraction
i of local currencies, and of business, &c. will re-
I lease the specie, and cause, in less than two
r months, a plentiness in that article that will set
us all afloat again, if we know how to avail our
selves of our position. Since last May about Jive
million s of specie has gone to Europe. This
f will, under the management of the Bank of En
,• gland, and added to her own, form the basis of a
r new and a better system. In his country we have
. yet large amounts as specie, and singulaily
i enough, it is beginning to flow back to us from
I abroad. The revulsion throughout the world has
diminished business to one-tenth the amount of
, former days.
