T ht Lexington .Verting.-The dinner proposed to be
given in tide place, on to-day, to Judge Clavton, has
been abandoned for the purpose of affording oar citi-
gens an opportunity of attrnding the meeting at Lex-
ington. We look to the proceedings of this day at that
place with great interest and anxiety—its results will
prove momentous to the interests of the Troup party,in
volving as they will in all probability the future course of
the leading men of that party on the great question of
Nullification. XVf do hope our political friends who
attend the meeting will act with reflection, and in
adoptinga course of action-in devising “the mode and
the meaaufg of redress ” they w illlookto future conse
quences; slid ^resistance is determined on, let it be of
ouch a character as not to involve themselves and the
party in the ridiculous and reckless planslaid down by
John C. Calhoun and others in South Csrolina.
One thing in connexion with this meeting wo deeply
regret—the illiberal course pursued hy it* projectors in
excluding from its deliberations and festivities, our dis
tinguished and patriotic members to Congress.Messrs.
FORSYTH and WAYNE. It is an outrago on the
feelings, and a stab at'the popularity of those distin
guished gentlemen. But the) are too deeply rooted
in the affection and confidence of the PEOPLE to suit
fer.in any great degreo.from this impotent attempt to in
jure their standing. It is said those gentlemen supported
a Tariff Bill by voting for the compromise of the Secre
tary of tho Treasury-ah, indeed! and what, we would
ask, did those gentlemen virtually support who voted
against it! Why a Tariff bill, and one a thousand
limns worse—the bill of 1828. It was a choice of
evils—Meisr*. Forsyth and Wayne choBO the least, and
by this coarse it seems they have incurred the displea
sure of our Lexington friends.
We do not intend to exprexs ourselves as in any way
whatever impugning the course of those gentlemen who
voted against the compromise. Wo believe they acted
conscientiously—they are all high minded and honora
ble men,and have our entire confidence; but we do ob
ject tu our Lexington friends putting under the ban of
their displeasure, iit so public and open a manner
those gentlemen who advicn't.l tho compro mise,
thercbv attempting to prejudice lha comm unity
against them, without affording an opportunity for ex
planation or vindication.
jq»0« notice nf the meeting to bo held this day in
Lexington, was in type before we were oworo that a
meeting of the same kind was contemplated in this
place. We hope our Lexington friends will give an
additional impulse to the movement, hy adopting the
preamble and resolutions which prevailed here with so
much unanimity.
—00©—
We learn that tho late meeting held by the
ChM.kce Chiefs in Tennessee (not at New Eclio-
ta aserroneously stated by aumc of our State papers)
was characterized throughout hy much excitement.—
Tho Chiefs in Georgia were in favor of a treaty, nod
were opposed by the common Indians (who have be
come -so jealous of their Chiefs ns to suspect every
tiling they approve of as intonded to injureand oppress
them,) and by tho Indians in Tennessee and North
Carolina.
Tho Lottery Commissioners convened at Mitiedgo-
ville on tho 2Slh ult. by order of the Governor, for tho
purpose of making the necessary preparations fur car
rying llio law ofthe state, (disposing by lotterv tho va
cant Territory of the Nation,) into effect as early as
practicable.
The Theatre.—'Wocallthe attention of tho good citi
zens ef our town, and others who remain from
xth-ond, to Mr. Sol. Smith’s “bill of fare” to-night at
the Theatre—Ihe comedy of the “ Hypocrite” and the
-farce of" Rendezvous.” They are both standard plays
snd well worthy the attention of the public. Wo
-have attended on several occasions the performances of
Mr. Smith's company, aid can unhesitatingly commend
them to Ihe attention of tho lovers of tho drama.—
Theatricals, inour isolated situation, are so rare and
novel a treat that we would arfviso our good citizens to
improve the present opportunity, for it may be long,
very long, before another may be offered them.

What is the first object and origin of banks
but lo nfford to the commercial community a
circulating medium, w hich can be given in
exchange for, and fairly represent the value of
the export* of the country ? thus affording
capital, and exciting competition among the
merchants, who in tho character of agents for
Ihe farmer and planter, send their produce to
foreign countries to find a market, and bring
back for their consumption, articles of neces
sity of foreign growth and manufacture. Out
ha* it ever been contended, or will it now be
contended, because sudden changes and flue
tuatinD* in the commerce of tho world, fre
quently produce lo our merchants, and conse
quently to the banks the most ruinous disas-
lors, so as to cause many of them to fail,
thereby at times producing great anxiety and
pecuniary distress among the community, that
the system should altogether bo abandoned 1
Or has the experience of hoary time more
wisely determined, that tho misfortunes of
the feta, or the moment, shall not be arrayed in
frightful deleting colours, ogainst the great
and important interests of the many, which
continues to coll abroad for tho same patron
age, and must do so, as long as one nation is
dependant upon another for an exchange of
their products for those of the other ? Who
does not see the impossibility of each farmer
or planter in Ihe country, sending his own pro-
duco to the various markets of Europe, Asia
or Africa, and bringing bBck the products nf
those countries ; which are essential (a his
necessities or convenience ? And if he is dri
ven to the necessity of employing those alone,
who havo an actual capital oi Gold and Silver
to perform the operation, the impossibility of
finding a sufficient number of such agents
whoso cdpital would represent tho commerce
of nny'conntry ? Hence the absolute necessi
ty of a credit system, bottomed upon the
known wants of the dependant nations, each
looking to the natural resources of the other to
sustain their credit, and fulfil their engage
ments in this necessary barter. This great
necessity of (he commerce of tho world, has
given rise to the banking system in the differ
ent countries, creating a fictitious capital,
which is intended to represent tho value of the
products of the country, while passing from
the hands of the producer, through those of
tho merchant who acts as his agent, until Ihe
sumo representative is returned to the merchant
in payment for (he articles ho has imported
from foreign markets, for tho necessary con
sumption of the country. And although thou
sands of merchants may fail, ariJ thousands of
banks may lose by them, and may also fail,
and the various in'erests in tho community
sustain great inconvenience and 'losses, yet
tho commerce of the world must and will go
on, and other merchants, and other banks wilt
take the place of those, who from the want of
judgement, or tho effect of unforeseen oceur-
renecs.mny be compelled to withdraw from the
great stage of action. And so must it be with
llio great and important mining interest of
Georgia ! Tito precious metal is here in the
bowels of the earth, which is now the bona fide
property of our own citizens, and must and
will bo sopnraled from it, and carried from the
country to the amount of many millions of
dollars every year. Tho true question then
is, shall wo adopt plans which will secure to
our citizens n continuation of the benefits
which Providence has placed in their posses
sion, hy enabling them to realize all the pro
fits arising from their property, or force them
through necessity, for tho want of the proper
knowledge and means, to throw away for a
mere pittance into the hands of foreign capi-
talists tho greater portion of this immense
source of wealth, which of course will bo
withdrawn from the state, and hardly bo known
as being even a portion of her exports—scarce
ly a dollar being returned for the millions car
ried away. If it bo the interest of the Uoited
Slates to hazard millions raised by bank pa
tronage, and in any and every way, upon the
stormy ocean, whero nothing but the goodness
of an all wise and merciful Providence can in
sure success, rather than to suffer other na
tions tu become the carriers of our exports,
surnly it cannot he wisdom in tho Stale, to
suffer foreigners to become almost the exclu
sive beneficiaries of her great and important
mining interest; (and all who aro not citizens
are foreigners in effect.) yet. while the United
Slates are waging war against foreign nations,
spending countless millions of the public trea
sure, and shedding tho blond of her citizens in
streams, rather than submit to tho slightest
innovation upon this important principlo of
right and interest; strango to tell, Georgia
has in her legislative capacity refused to char
ter a bank to patronise and protect an impor
tant branch of her internal resources and in
dustry, apparently equal in nmount to one
tuurth, or one third ofthe whole exports of the
state, lest some of the miners mny fail in
their experiments, and the bank probably sus
tain a loss nf the money loaned them! Was
there ever such legislation heard of before,
when connected with a subject of such high
and vital importance to the country ?
If, as really was the fact, that the three
banks chartered by the last Legislature, as
well ;ts every other bank in Georgia, received
those charters upon the broad ground, (hat it
was to-encourage the agricultural, as well as
the commercial interest of the section of coun
try where they were intended to be located,
hy enabling the merchant to have sufficient
capital to pay the planter for hi* cotton and
other produce of the country; I will put it to
the candour of every intelligent mind to an
swer, if the danger of loss to the banks from
tlx) known uncertsimy of the value of the groat
staple of the country, and the consequent fre
quent failures of the most rsspectable, honest,
and intelligent of our merchants, might not
hove been as fair and vilid an argument
against the propriety of chartering those banks,
as that the probability of losing by an unsuc
cessful miner, could upon any principle of
justice, have been urged against the propriety
of chartering the Gainesville Bank ? If it be
contended that when the commercial banks
make loans, they do it on what they consider
good security, and that losses are scarcely
ever sustained except in times of great com
mercial convulsions, when the endorsers as
well us the drawers become sufferers ; the an
swer is at once ready, and applicable ton, that
it would imply a great want of liberality, to
suppose that the upper section of the State,
could not afford stockholders and directors of
a bank, who would have a sufficient knowl
edge of business, and general intelligence, to
enable them to require, add judge of the suf
ficiency of the security afforded by their cus
tomers, as Uatokinsviile possibly can afford—-
or indeed, as Macon, Columbus, or any other
place. But I will admit for the sake of argil
moot, what is frequently the case with all
banks, that the commodities in which their
customers deal, are taken to a great extent as
the basis of their security for loans made to
business men, and then show from the actual
practice of the country, that the danger to tho
community at fame, would be much less, from
the operations of a mining bank, than is daily
incurred hy them through the operations of
every bank in the stale.
If merchants did not through necessity,
trade beyond llieir capital, there would be no
use for banks at all; but the very fact, that the
whole commerce of a country may be carried
on with a fictitious capital, through the agency
of the banks us heretofore shown, sustains mu
in the assertion, that many of our most valua
ble merchants ore constantly operating in
nmounts vastly over (heir capital in this way.
How do they effect it I A young man of luir
business character for instance, who has little
or no capital, commences business under tho
patronage of one or more other merchants,
who appear to be rich, and havo established
for themselves a good credit. Tho new be
ginner receives upon tho faith of their credit,
and tho appearances of the business he is en
gaged in, extensive loans from tho banks,
with which he purchases hundred* and thou
sands of bales of cotton, shipping all the time
to factors nnd commission merchants at nlhor
ports, and drawing on them for money, thus
sustaining their credit temporarily at home,
and to nil appearance doing n large and pro
fitable business. Ho still goes on to borrow
and pay alternately, and’through the agency
of his factor at New York or elsewhere, per
haps to ship hts cotton to Europe, until he has
actually vested in the article, perhaps ten or
twenty times as much as he is actually worth-
He must of course owo to the bonks at home,
all the difference between the original cost of
the article, expenses incurred ; and llio sums
advanced by the New York factor, who
holds or ships the cotton. Thus matters go
on swimmingly, tho banks gelling their inter-
est und exchange, and wind and weather per
mitting, the merchant making a princely for
tune, aad no body injured. But the scene
shifts ; a sudden decline in the article in Eu
rope or elsewhere, which is frequently the case
to 10, 20, or 50 per cent., produces on actual
Iosb to tho merchant, on what ts thus caught
on his hands, greater than all he i* worth, and
whnt he owes to the banks also. The loss
therefore must be sustained by his endorsers,
and Ins factor who had mndu advances beyond
ihe price the urticle sold for. But if it should
so happen, that his endorsers havo themselves
been all this time engaged in the same untor
lunate business themselves, and (ho result
should prove a aimitur one to them, so that
they could not pay the paper of Ihe other, it fol
lows ol course, thnt the bank most lose the
debt. It will also bo borne in mind, that those
factors who frequently have ten or twenty
thousand bales of cotton doposited in their
yore houses, on which according to the cus
tom of tho trade they make advances to three
fourths of its value, are themselves borrowers
from tho banks of these immense sums of mo
ney, and in many instances upon very slight
personal security, relying mainly upon the ur
ticlo in store, ns tho strung ground of safety
Tho same cause produces the samo disnstrou 1
effect to the factor, for if his customer has been
dealing on a fictitious capital, and is unable to
refund, he must loso the difference between
the price received, and the amount advanced.
And if thoso losses peradventure should be
more than he is worth, the banks must lose
the difference. No candid person will deny
this being a fair statement of the liabilities of
the commercial transactions of our country ;
and I deern it unnecessary to present any evi
dence of tho many failures that have actually
taken place through means of this kind, pro
ducing great losses to tho community, as well
as lo the banks, because it is a fact of such
public notoriety. Notwithstanding all the
danger here shown from the common d.iily
operations of the commercial banks in the
state, the Legislature still continues to charter
litem by scores, und no warning voice is heard
of the danger of such a course.
But how stand* the ense with the probable
operations of n mining bank ? Suppose no
individual should possess a mine, without the
means of operating an it, nnd lie should ap
ply lo the bank for assistance, would lie ex
pect to obtain it, unless he gave satisfactory
security l Such an expectation would be un
reasonable. Who then would he offer ns an
endorser l Not another miner, (whose whole
wealth may be involved like |hc merchant in
the same dangerous enterprise) for the proba
bility is, that three limes out of four, the per
sons owning the mines will at first be unknown
to each other. It is a rational conclusion
then, that the security which will be offered to
the bank, will generally be of the most sub
stantial character that the state thirds—based
upon the agricultural interest of tho country. If
therefore the friends of the holder of n mine,
choose to stake their credit, to enable him to
test Ihe value of his property, wherein can the
hank be a loser, or what reasonable right would
it havo to restrain them from doing so I To
effect aucb n purposb would be one of the
great objects of the bank, and if the miner
fail, hi* endorsers would only be the lo-
sors j but if he succeeded, the bank would
gain another valuable customer (ns will here
after lie shown) nnd the stale unothor wealthy
citizen. It is with a very bad grace therefore,
that wo are admonished by our banking fellow
citizens of the lower counties, to be aware of
a bank on this score. We would remind them
of tho old adage, “ persons living in glass
houses should not cast stones.”
The same blanch of the subject will he iu-
sumed in my next. A. B.
TO THE PUKLIC.
R EFUTATION is an honest Ilian’* ricliraf jiwel,
anti when availed through the medium of the
public prints over m proper sinnature, it matters not
whether by one whose character tttuucU fair at linin'*,
or one who on account of hi* inixdoedi*, wears the
neighborhood neal of infamy, from w hatover point lie
moy come, receiw* a weight of character or force
through that channel, which in my opinion entitles the
author at looAt to h pupAing notice,
I am informed that Keuhen Thornton, inn lute num
ber of tho Southern Danner, hua directly or indirectly
charged ino with committing a fraud upon the tictiei.il
Government, bv celling my improvement!! to my fo*ih,
and then lo the Government. V*1io will deny the ri&rlil id
a father to transfer hi* property by '•(ten nnd fail eale
tnhiaaonft? and is it fruud, or nny thing more than
sheer honesty in them to relinquish their right of the
improvements to the Government, and receive pay for
the same, by enrolling themselves for the Arkansas,
under tho Treaty of 1828? which was done by my
sons, and they urc now a. their new homes in the Ar
kansas.
But Mr. Reuben Thornton to justify himself has un
dertaken to enndemn Miy. Curry, and every person
who enrolled untfer him ; if l»e, Mr. Thornton will re
collect the case of George Ward, he .will hove little
right to cry out fraud. Mr Ward is a Cherokee na
tive, and one of those who have »nkcn reserves hereto
fore, and agreeable to Mr. Thornton’s own doctrine, is
net entitled to a participation in any of the articles of
the Treaty of 1828. yet Mr. Thornton, while acting ns
enrolling Agent,pledged his Aon or to-Mr. V\ aid that if.ie.
would enrol he should have twenty- five hundred dollars
for Ids improvements, when they were not worth tnn«<-
thun seven or eight hundred dollars; and in fact they
were only valued at about eight hundred dollars. Sup
pose the 1 liter to have Seen the real value of that gen
tleman’s improvements, and Mr. Thornton had posses
sed the power and means to pay what was promised, out
of the Government fund, would not this have been a
much more aggravated species of fraud than that of
which he so bitterly complained to the War Depart
ment? gnd on tho other hand, if tiro improvements
were worth only eight hundred dollars, was it not o
base fraud upon an individual of fair fame to induce
him to enrol by offering prices, or making pledget*
which never could be redeemed ? and was it not also
equally as bane a fraud upuu a widow, to give her a
certificate, that her negroes were each allowed an Ar
kansas blanket, by way of inducing her to enrol?
Suppose the Indian Agent had honored this unauthori
sed requisition under the Treaty of 1828, there would
have been a swindling of the Government out of twen- .
ty-seven costly blankets, by Brother Thornton, in favor lo ' vl
of Sitter Tally This plausible writer and disinterested
public servant, speaks also of the injustice done to Ihe
poor Indian in buying his improvements. If them bo
injustice in that, how much more is theru when a pub
lic officer descends to take advantage of his station, to
impose upon a poor woman, and defraud her children
out of a stipend, intended in the humanity of the treaty,
to provide tor the immediate wants uf the emigrants
on their arrival West of the Mississippi. Mr Thorn
ton cannot be ignorant of the defeat he met with in
securing to himself the head rights of Betsy Langly
and hcrchi'dren, und as the Farris* are good authority
with him in some cases, he certainly would not object to
their testimony when ncccpxrry on this subject. But
we wilUurn our uttontion once more to public frauds;
and let ua enquire, if this valuable public functionary
was not absent at Millrdgevtlle, two wcekn during the
session ofthe last Legislature against instructions from
his superior, (attending to a little bank matter) and
when he made out hts account, at $4,00 per da> for
public services, and asked the approval ofthe superu*-
lendant if he did not certify to him upon honor that he
was at this time actually engaged in enrolling Chcro
kecs? Whether this certified occount, intended to
draw funds ou. of the Treasury, was not docked to the
amount of $56,00 at least ? Should I in this or in part
of }hi* last proposition labor under a mistake, Mr
Curry-I have no doubt would do Mr. Thornton the jus
tice to say so in writing, provided he would conde
scend to have any thing to do with a controversy,
where Mr. Thornton was concerned ; ond I now osk
Mr. Thornton to call on that gentleman for evidence ol
his innocence.
Mr. Thornton incloses hit commission to the Secre
tary of War after this account was corrected, and or
dered to bo paid, and when it was generally under
stood hero that Maj. Curry had sent him home with o
determination not again to have hi* aid in any way
whatever; why then wns all this parade made about
resigning to tho Department a communion‘that wan
never filled up there with bis name?
! solicit Mr. Editor, through your columns, to pre
sent this picture of Mr. Thornton’s pimiotivuiaud dis
interested lovo of country, to a candid and discrtmi
noting public, as an answer to that part of his commu
nication having reference to myself, and ask such edi
tors as have taken notice of his to republish mine,so that
his character and motives may be fully appreciated
where be ia not already known, pledging my reputation
for the truth of all that is herein contained, by punitive
averment or even by iuucndo.
