‘‘(Jnxni.KSToN, I lee. 8, 1837.
"I am very much surprised at the *ign« of
things in Columbia regarding the currency,
and more surprised to hear no practical re»-
sons on the subject. 1 am satisfied in my
•wn mind that the effects outflowing of the

In a disturbed stale ol the foreign Exchange,
the custom-house will he merely a passage
through which the metals must go abroad.

ami it the money, or specie ralhnr, be put in

lo the abili'y cfihe Northern thinks to build
their issue* up, while it t tih.it rads (iom (lies
Bon hern Hanks, as it certainly will diminish
Hiuir stock of specie precisely in the amount
of the duties pa d here—baling tho ir.ll ng
expeiiihlntu inada here — rewarding the pan
ol the country that has pul forth a redundant
paper currency, at the crtieime of tho part of
the country that has acted prudently m that
respect. Specie will then bon* constantly
drawn from ns by the Government us former
ly by the Uhinosi', wiis would inks nothing

not sec how else ihcy bear on Carolina pros
perity. • ♦ * * •
"Ut course, when I invoitigatc a subject of
this sort, mid the course ihe Legislature
should pursue, Ido not link it with polil cal
movements, but on its own merits; audit is
true, to my mind, that tho larger our direct
(inpu ts become, il o more onerously will tins
System net; lor with increased imports, will
come increased value in dul es. Now, sup
pose that the millions imported into New
Vork tvcio shilled into our city,and the vaults
of the custom-house had as much specie ns
our old friend Uoilisclnhl could sport, yet Ihe
Government payments would actus a sponge
hero, and bo pressed out at the North. The
ell'’cl of checking all the Dunks of the coun
try may be pvqvr enough, to make such a
measure agree with some ready-made maxim
m political economy,but wc should pay for il;
mid because the Government lias been abso
lutely forced into this position by ila hostility
to the U. B. Dunk, and had no other mode nf
carrying on the war, we are gratuitously act
ing ollimsively Willi il. It is certainly, like
the old lanri'syqtein, draining from one part
of tho country tor llw benefit ofiho other,
though in the former case n had the merit of
establishing manufactories. Where is the
merit of tins!"

To the Editors ol the Eagle;
There was quite an amusing incident oc*
| curred during the course of voting in this

voters placed tho whig tickets as a badge on
their hats, and having turned their coats inside
ont, marched in a bn ly and with the greatest
gravity into the house, w.lh a loader at thoir
head; termed a semicircle around the poll,and
alter q nelly depositing their votes, the loader
addressed tlie chairman of our selectmen ( i
Jackson man) the following speech, which I
have been requested to scud you lor publica
tion, winch 1 hope you will do, as it occasion
ed much mirth here. Vottrs, &.o.
Mr. Moderator— You may think, perhaps,
that we have assumed an unbecoming eo:.
linin' for tho present grave occasion. But
permit me to mtorm you that mns is the latest
and most approved political uniform, it is the

the home ol fashion, where about 20,000 suits
of this (lc*criptiou|have been lately ordered by
ihe Jackson Van Uiircn men in the country,
am) I earnestly advise all tuy Jackson friends
here to procure such coals without delay, as it
is now rendered certain that M-. \an Duren
himself must adopt the lashion, or will bo left
not "alone in his glory,” but without any glory
or power either.
These coat--, sir, have mysterious powers.
They seem to relieve the consciences and lift a
load from tho hearts cl Jackson men who wear
them ; and I verily believe that nothing would
|so soon brighten the sad faces I see around
I me, as a turned coat. But, sir, let no Whig
i undertake lo wear one Tlio coats have nev
' or been fashionable among them, ns they cannot
be made to lit. The reason of which 1 take to
be this. Alt Whig coat* arc already right aide

We cmifeas wo are not at nil proud of T c

opinion) winch Virginia ha* abroad, as tin:

which have attracted so much atten

disclaim lor her the pater oily. The South

lo them. Indeed, there uro many which are
tlio creation of tho hired grub-street pools of

These sonjr* are devoid of musical harmony,

to discountenance every thing winch lends to

support and defence in a refined and imel
lectnal disposition of the public inml; upon
which public amusement and entertainments
exert a mighty influvn «• It is of the great
est importance, therefore, ilia l such exhibi

"Between the p ay and hircc htlle Miss Wray

more refuted taste of the North, where Col

defend the system, which has been menaced in

Execution of Join of Arc.—On the 10th
of May 1412, sin* was taken from her prison,
under an escort of 120 men at arms, and appear
ed in female apjiarel, while on her head was jila
ced a mitre with this inscription, “A relapsed
heretic, an apostate, an idolater,” She was suji
ported by two Dominican friars, and in passing
llnough the streets she exclaimed “Old Kouon,
Rouen! must thou be my last abode!” The
cardinal of Winchester, the bishop of Terouanne,
chancclinr of France, the bishop of Beiuvois,and
lt»o other judges were scaled Ujion the scaffold,
wailing the arrival of Joan of Arc. When she
appeared, she was heavily fettered, and, as she
mounted the scaffold, her face appeared bathed
in tears. Her funeral sermon was then preached
by Nicholas Midy; a discourse which, had his
conscience not hem intmlly cations, he would
have trembled to pronounce in the face of heaven,
as he stood confronted willt the innocent victim
about to bo sundered with his consent mid con
currence. The infamous P. Cauchon, bishop of
Beauvois, Mien pronounced the sentence of con
demnation, »t the end of which ho invoked the
mercy of the secular judges, who were seated on
a lower scaffold. Before she descended from the
scaffold to mount the fatal pile, Joan turned to
tho bishop of lieauvois, and cxler ded her fetter
ed hand toward him, “Tom,” she exclaimed, ‘ arc
the cause of my death; you promised to restore me
to the church and you have delivered me up to my
enemies!” Joan then knelt down, and implojr
cd the mercy of the Supremo I3oiq*. She
called upon tho ccclcasiaatica and all around
hvr solemnly to assist in net prayers. Nor,
though her last moments wore attended with
circumstances peculiarly awful, was her un
grateful sovereign forgotten. Nofulher sentence
was pronounced by the secular tribunal, except
the words '‘lake her away.” The executioner
advanced trembling ns ho came to receive her
from the guards. She asked for a crucifix, and
an Englishman present broke a slick, and formed
a son of cross, which sho took, and, after kissing
it, pressed it to her heart, and acccnded the fatal
pile. Before it was lighted they brought a cross
from a neighboring church, which, at her request
was placed before her. As soon as she fell the
lire approach, with her accustomed humanity,
she warned the priests to retire. The pile was
rtised very high, so that all the ajieclalors had a
hill view of her, in order that any doubt of her
death might be prevented. The fire was removed
as soon ns she was supposed to bo dead, that the
people might have an opportunity of seeing tho
body. As tongas she retained the power of ut
terance the sacred name of Jesus was heard to
issue from the flames. The sobs and groans
which the violence of her anguish extorted from
her, alone interrup'ed her ejaculations. Hoi
heart was found entire, after the rest of her body
was quite consumed. The Cardinal of Winches
ter ordered her ashes to be collected and thrown
into tho Seine. F’o pciishsd the unhappy Maid

The Kingston “British Whig,” a lory paper

addressed several letters to jiersons in different,
pails of the province, undercover to O. W. Yar.

his suspicions excited opened and, finding them
of an allege 1 treasonable character, sent them to
