MAJ. COOPER AND MR. MS BET.
The approaching election in October, must
he regnrdetl by every* one conversant with
public affairs, as one of the most important
which bus for several years been held id our
Stale; not only to Georgia, but to the other
States, involving, as it will, principles of great
import to the interests ami well being ol every
member of our glorious confederacy. It is
necessary, therefore, that full and free dis-
closures of the views of the candidates for
popular favor, should be given to the people,
and that every press of either side in poliiics,
should lend their columns to the dissemination
and candid representation of these views. In
conformity to these sentiments, we to-day
publish the letters of Mnj. Cooper, recently
written to the editor of the Macon Messenger,
and his remarks at the Fourth of July Celc-
i’.S Capability of refusing (heir bills when not j Oration at Eatontoii; together with as copious

that be will advocate the claims of “ any gen-

Clay, Webster, Harrison, or any other of the
Federal leaders. lie says nothing about the
mode in whicii the public money should be
disbursed—this, too, we suppose be leaves to
the discretion of the collectors, or the Execu

bet fears that the Sub Treasury would be
come a great government bank—an engine
by whicn the Executive would add to bis

lowing the money to be placed in his hands
without regulation or law, subject to be col

We say collected, because the mere fact that
be wishes the government to be compelled to
receive batik notes, if adopted, would not
prevent its converting those notes into specie,
and in a way, too, w*ere the Executive so dis
posed, which might be ruinous to the banks.
Suppose any particular bunk bail incurred the
displeasure of the President, or could not
readily be made to second any scheme he
might adopt for iiis own aggrandizement, bow

system of collecting the revenue. lie would
only have to issue private orders to his agents,
to convert the bills of other banks held by
them, into the notes of the particular institu
tion singled out for vengeance, (and this could
be easily done, for any bank would prefer to
redeem its own notes with those of any other
bank, to paying out its specie,) and then
make bis demand for specie. A few opera

is explicit enougli on the sub.treasury ques
tion—he is against it—and as he does not
“disclaim” friendship for the Bank, we con
clude, according to the logic of the Macon
Messenger, that he is in favor of it. We
particularly commend to the attention of the
reader, the last sentence of the letter, as a
specimen of the correct diction and elegant
grammatical style for which the “ all the tal-
ents party ” profess to be so distinguished.
LaGhange, 2Gth July, 183S.
Dear Cooper:—I am not a Sub-Treasury
man, and although I am willing to let it be
known to all and each of our friends and en
emies, still I feel myself under obligations to
fulfil my promise to our friends, that that ques
tion shall not divide our ranks. As far as I
know in this part of the State, the people are
cool, and all desire to see a glorious triumph
of the good old cause of republicanism, in the
election of every man upon the State Rights
ticket. This reply to your letter will answer
the two-fuld purpose of an answer to the ques
tions of the Macon Messenger, as well as your
letter to me. I presume a reply through the
papers is agreeable to you, as you lay no in
junctions of secrecy on me, and I see you are
writing in the prints on that subject, under
your own proper signature, and I do not know
where a letter would reach you.
Your friend.

Viewing, as many of our friends do, the cur-
renev question as of paramount importance
at the present time, wc have seen indications

South Carolina.—If the sentiments ex
pressed *»t the last celebration of the 4th of
July, in Carolina, are indications of the public
feelings in regard to the great question, which
now agitates tho country, the strong presump,
tion is, that the citizens of our sister State arc
nlmosi unanimous on one side of that question.
—Among other incidents indicating a decided
npprohalion of the separation of Bank and
State, is the following:
At the celebration of the day at Black-
Creek, among the regular toasts given was
tho following :
Tho National Bank—the Serpent in Eden.
Upon the rendering of this sentiment, one or
two persons appeared dissatisfied; it was
moved and seconded, that a vote should be
taken on the sentiment; and the result was,
yeas 100, nnys 2 only.
From the Charleston Mercury.
We have the pleasure of stating that at a
"public meeting in that District, recently,—
■ Chancellor Harper, addressed the people of
Fairfield, and in his speech advocated the
the Independent Treasury System with his
accustomed power of argument.
- We also hear it asserted, and we doubt not
on.good authority, that General McDuffie, is
on the same side ; that he confessed himself
weaned from his former attachment to the
United States Bank or a United States Bank,
find has abandoned his advocacy thereof, on
account of tho devolopements of late years of
its dangerous powers and tendency to interfere
in politics, and that he prefers infinitely the
i^ub-Tretisury system to any connexion winh
us upon it; but when those who have contem
plated such a course, read all lie has written
and published, and observe how deep and set-
lied is his hostility to us as a partv, wc can
hardly he persuaded that any candidate will
be stricken from the Union ticket, to make
room for him. Why should our own friends
be sacrificed for his benefit? If any of our
ticket opposed the Constitutional Treasury;
if the opinions of any of them were doubtful
even, there might be some reason in it. But
as tilings now stand, it would he a most suici
dal policy. We have a ticket, all of whose
members agree with us in sentiment on eve-
ry important, point—it embodies a high order
of intellect and moral worth ; and may fairly
challenge a comparison not only with the
ticket of our opponents, but with any other
which has preceded it, for all the qualities
necessary to make able and faithful represen-
tntives of tho people. Shall wc abandon it to
secure the election of one, who, however we
may admire the bold stand he has taken
against bank usurpations and corruptions, is
stiil our stern and uncompromising eiicrnv in
every other respect ? Patriotism, principle,
self preservation itself, forbid it.
Mr. Nisbet’s exposition is of a different
character, and will be hardly calculated to
captivate uny friend of Mr. Van Buren or the
Constitutional Treasury, either for the senti
ments inculcated, or tho manner in which
they are expressed. It is a document of con
siderable length, and the author labors evi,
dently,rather to mystify than clearly to express
his real opinions—if, indeed, he fully under
stands what his own opinions are. Wc gather,
however, from his letter, that he opposes a
Uuited States Bank; that ho opposes the
sap
banks, or any other system proposed. He
believes that it will conduce most importantly
to ihc'ndvancetnent of bis cherished object;
tho Southern*Direct Trade with Europe, and
the commercial emancipation of tho South.
Constitutional Treasury; that he advocates
the receipt of local bank notes in payment of
public dues; that he is willing to allow the
receivers of the public money to make their
own bnrgoins with tho banks relative to the
terms of depositing with them, or to hold tho
no! oblige the receivers to take bank notes ;
and the practice under it was only to take
the notes of banks in the place where tho re
ceiver resided. The Bank of the United
States had then been chartered, and was the
contemplated depository of the public monies.
Whatever that Bank would credit as cash
was taken—nothing else. Our situation now
is different; and to receive hank notes would
involve the Government in the risk of loss by
the failure of any of the eight hundred sliav-
ing.shops now chartered, or the depreciation
of their notes. Is it wise to increase this
risk ?
Mr. Nisbet advocates the policy of dividing
Government surpluses among the States—a
policy calculated to destroy State indepen
dence, and subvert State Rights. But hav
ing already extended our article to n greater
length than wc desired, we must defer com
ment upon this portion of_ his letter, as well
as upon sundry other opinions whicii ho has
promulgated—such, for instance, as the idea
that an independent sub-treasurv is equivalent
to a national bank—that the majority in Con
gress is always subservient to tho will of the
Executive, &c. die. Perhaps we may here
after, as we have room and leisure, notice the
above and other portions of his singular letter.
We have always entertained for Mr. Nisbet
personally, feelings of great respect, and
when we saw him, nt the time nullification
made its first appearance among us, battling
against it, we hoped to be able to continue to
number him among our political friends. He
chose, however, to abandon his principles for
the sake of men, and then we separated.
He now entertains sentiments which we re
gard as extremely erroneous, and which, if
adopted, would entail lusting injury upon the
country—he opposes an administration to
winch no good objections can be urged, and
which it is particularly the interest of the
South to sustain—and we must therefore, in
common with, as we hope, a majority of the
people of Georgia, oppose him.
FOR THE SOUTHERN BANNER.
A DREAM.
It was nt the springs. Many a carriage
had deposited its freight, and many a saddle-
horse stood disburdened of his rider. A bevy
of fair ladies was there, and a profusion of tai
lors’ work (with, l presume, their usual con-
tents) graced the apartment. What the
beaux in blue or black broad cloth were about
l do not know, perhaps I was too sleepy to
inquire, hut the fair visitors of the spring
were, as palpably ns dreams could act and
speak, passing the glass with comments—
“ It is too salt.” “ It is bjtter.” “ It is
warm.” “ It is insipid.” And then the
glass stood still and the same tongues moved,
but with rapidity so increased tiiat the repor-
ter of my sleep was overcome, and told jr.e
nothing of it—two other voices now were
iteard—
“They wont drink the water, I am sorry
l bought the lot.”
“ 1 am only sorry you built a tavern upon
it to sell water to drink.”
“ I think champaigns would suit their tastes
better: but in this place it is that dyspepsia
is to he cured.”
“ If they y*ill; if otherwise, it is not your
concern.”
“ What shall I supply them with?”
“ What they will drink.”
“ But this place depends on its medical
character.”
“ Give it—get it—buy it a new character.”
“ l will seal up the spring and advertise
the discovery of one superior in quality—in
stead of medicated water, I will give them
iced water and molasses.”
I do not know what reply was made by his
amiable spouse to the proprietor of the
springs : my dream was broken by tho entry
into the school.room, of my first class of
young ladies returning from the recess. I
was about to resume the hopeless task of ad
ministering the salutary portion of rouding,
writing and arithmetic, but recollecting my
dream, I changed the writing lesson for a
game at cards, tho arithmetic for a novel,
and, instead of culling on the class to stand
iu order to read aloud, I bade them form their
little knots for miscellaneous conversation, in
any tone, from a whisper to a shiiek. 1 do
not k::ow whether the latter part of the dis
closure has been made on the right quarter,
but as I conceive that it will bo of greater in
terest to many indulgent parents than that of
tny dream, 1 request you will muke known
to nil such that I have succeeded in making
education palatable to spoiled children, and
solicit the patronage of the public of Athens
