What responsibility superior to this do the fleers of our national government incur ? In truth, it is to the very same tribunal, and none other, that they too, are answerable. A gov ernment officer, though he may in Cases of im peachments undergo a more formal and well advised trial than a bank director, and in this respect has greatly the advantage of him, must yet depend ujxni the verdict of public opinion; and though his punishment for misconduct is more definite, it is in no respect more severe. Such is a very general view of the operations of banks and of the safeguard which the pub lic have against the abuse of their power. The extent of that power and its beneficial influ ence, we intend to consider in a future num ber. Meantime we wish distinctly to disclaim any intention of maintaining that in past times the power of banks has not been abused. We know too well that some Legislatures have been faithless in granting charters, and that some Directors have broken their trust in acting upon them. But we do assert, from knowledge of the facts, that such instances are rare ex ceptions to the general benefit derived from banks. To condem them, because they possess the power to do mischief, would be as reasona ble as to condemn «s to be shackled and im prisoned, because we have the power to strike our neighbor to the heart. To break them, down by the force of public opinion would be as monstrous and absurd, if not as disastrous, as by the same means, to raze the splendid and symmetrical fabric of our government, because its administration might fall into the hands of the ignorant and corrupt The Florida War. From an extra po litely forwarded by the Savannah Georgian, in advance of the mail, we make the following extracts. They will be read with sincere sor row : ,*» Disastrous Intelligence. From Capt. Mills, of the steamer Camden, from Garey’s Ferry, arrived this morning, we learn that on the 28th ult. between Peas Creek and the Cypress swamp, a small party of Indians was seen and pursued, and when the pursuing.party reached the hammock, the Indians were discovered in great force, and a severe contest immediately ensued, in which 28 of our gallant troops were killed, and 111 wounded. Among the killed are Col. Thompson, Capt. Van Swearingen, Lieut Brook and Lieut Center, all of the Ar my, and Col. Gentry, Captain Andrews, and Lieut. Walker, of the Missouri volunteers wounded. Col. Gentry has since died. The loss of the Indians not ascertained, but presumed to be large. A few days previous Gen. Jessup captured 27 Indians near Fort Lane. Since the above was written we have been politely furnished with the following extra , which painfully confirms, the above statement. From the Jacksonville Courier. We hasten to give to the public the follow ing intelligence of a battle recently fought be tween our troops and the Indians. The place, as stated in the letter, is not known to us, or to the writer. Such accounts cannot but convince all, that the foe we are pursuing and fighting, is not to be contemned. To the Editor of the Jacksonville Courier. Garey’s Ffriiy, Jan 2d, 1837. Dear Sir :—I hasten to inform you that a battle was fought a few days since, (place not known,) between the Indians, and part of the 6th Regiment of Infantry. We lost in killed and wounded 139 ; loss of tlie enemy not known—the officers killed are Lt. Col Thonijb son, Capt Vanswearingen, Lts. Brook and Center, and Col. Gentry of the Volunteers. Wounded 111—killed28. Your’s in haste, RICHARD WEIGHTMAN. Extract of a letter repeived from Black Creek, dated— January 2d, 1838. An express reached here this morning, in 40 hours front Tampa Bay, bringing the intel ligence of a battle having been fought be tween the Seminoles under Sam Jones and Alligator,and the regular forces under Col. Z. Taylor, Ist infantry. It is not distinctly stated where the action took place, but pre sume it must have been in the immediate vicin ity of Lake Kissimmee, as we know by pre vious accounts, via Fort Mellon, of his being there on the 23d of Dec. Both parties must have fought with the most determined bravery. We have met with a severe loss. Lieutenant Col Thompson, Capt. Van Swearengen, and Lieutenants Center and Brooks, killed. Capt. Geo. Andrews and Lt Walker, severely woun ded ; Col. Gentry, of the Missouri Volunteers, mortally wounded (since dead). Killed and wounded, 139 ; say 111 wounded, and 28 kil- j led. The loss of the Indians we have not as certained, but they were completely cut up. | Foreign Aggression. The British troops stationed in tlie Province of New Brunswick, at the last dates were marching through the disputed Territory, on their way to Canada.— When it is recollected that by the terms of the arrangements, this portion of our territory is to be exempt from all exercise of jurisdiction by either party—and that for an alleged breach of this compact, an officer of the State of Maine, is now imprisoned in the jail at Fredericton, the indignation of the Nation will be aroused, and the Government be forced to maintain tiie rights, and protect in all its integrity the* 1 territory of one of the Sovereign and Indepen dent States which form the Confederacy. As matters now stand, Great Britain has the pos session, and enjoys all the advantages she can wish. This act of the British Authorities is a direct violation of the laws of Nations, and if not resented by our Government, must inevita bly lower us in tlie estimation of the world. Canada, The insurrection is suppressed, and the lenders have made their escape into the States. A strong feeling' in their behalf t«as been excited in New York and Vermont The demand of the authorities oh the Governor of New York to yield them up h*s hoen FftoM Europe. London dates to the 12th November have been received at New York. The papers ,are filled, says the Courier and Enquirer, to the exclusion of almost all other matter, with accounts of a grand civic feast given by the City of London to the Queen, which appears to have been on a scale of such magnificence as to have exclusively engrossed the attention of Unpeople. Returns of the result of the elections in France, have been received in Paris, and show an increased majority in favor of the Govern meat. The Cholera has broken out in the French army in Constantine, and the officer command ing the Artillery, has fallen a victim to it Don Carlos has returned to Navarre. Some accounts say that his followers are in a very forlorn and dispirited state. Others say’ that he is again making preparations for another attack on the capitol. > Liverpool Cotton Market, Nov. 8. The sales to day reach 6000 bales. The market is rather lighter with blit little offering. 5600 bales of American Cotton at 5 3-4d a 8 3-4d ore included in the sales; 600 bales American and 200 Surals have been taken on specula tion. Nov. 9. The transactions to-day have been fully 6000 bales at extreme prices. 1000 bales American and 1000 Surats have been taken on speculation. Among the sufferers by the recent fire at New Haven was an industrious mechanic named William C. Baldwin. At the fire, one Isaiah Gale, who rejoices in the pos session of a head, but never beard of a soul, attached a small remnant of Mr. Baldwin’s property to secure a debt of fif ty-nine dollars. Such a man ought to be buried where the sun never rises.—[N. York paper. Let’s pas&Jiim round, and gather the opinions of the press concerning him.

His raiment and food should be sack cloth and ashes—the lattes from the ru ins of the victim. [N. Y. Star. We think he should be compelled to live on ink soup until his countenance is changed to the blackness of his heart, and then to be embalmed in a bag of ash es ‘forty da vs and forty nights.’—[Rich.

He should be condemned to go on foot all the days of hisTife up and down Yel low Creek hills, hunting a colt, and be to knocked on the head by an old gray horse at last. [Western Herald. He ought to make a contract with A mos Kendall to carry the mail and get cheated out of his pay for it. He ought to sleep on an Arkansas flat on a summer night without a musquitoe bar—be con demned to marry two wives and live with them —wait at Wellsville three days fora steamboat, and then have onego past and not stop —to read the Globe regularly— sleep in a room with one who snores—be wiggled to death Ky pollywogs, and bu ried in a tar barret.—[Wheeling Times. The wretch should be compelled to read Eli Moore’s Speech and Bennett's Herald —physic off the same with lobe lia—and finally end his miserable career by being kicked to death by lame grass iiopers!—(Keep him agoing.)—[Hudson River Chronicle. He ought to be compelled to have his name printed on his hat in large letters while be lives, and engraved on his tomb stone after his death. Pass him on.—[Al bany Daily Advertiser. In the first place, let him be lathered %ith hot tar, and shaved with a broken glass bottle. Secondly, make him dance a double shuffle ou a heated iron floor, and when tired almost to death, let him rest himself on the end of a three prong ed pitchfolk. Thirdly, drive him naked through a nursery of full grown barber ry bushes, and afterwards kivtr him up in a*salt barrel. Fourthly, sentence him to feed on Graham bread for six months,and then make him read the Bangor Daily papers, and Harry Williams’s Speeches. If any thing is left of him, push him a long neighbors.— [Boston Daily Herald. The unfeeling monster should he made to cross the Altamaha on the back of an Alligator, closely pursued by a Deputy Sheriff, and then sent to Florida to fight the Seminoles. If the Indians did not “use him up,” lie should be compelled to read two or three numbers of the Bos ton Herald for his breakfast, and dine on one of Harrington’s still-born plays.— [Brunswick Advocate. From Florida. By the arrival of the steamboat Ocmulgee, from St. Au gustine, we learn that a few days since a skirmish took place between a detach ment of the army, and a body of Indians, in which the -officer commanding the whites, was severely wounded, and five Indians kille& and nine taken prisoners. The captive chiefs Oseola and others, that were in confinement, left St 7 Augus tine for Charleston in the steamboat Poin sett. [Savannah Republican.
