BRUNSWICK, (Ga.V«-_MARCH 30, 1839.
NORTH EASTERN BOUNDARY. _
Since our Inst week’s paper, affairs in Maine
have assumed a more peaceful aspect. All
prospect of an immediate war may now be
considered at an end, and we look with confi
dence to an amicable adjustment of the dis
puted territory at an early day. . Below we
give the two concluding paragraphs of Gov.
Fairfield’s recent message to the Legislature
on the subject of the President’s Message and
the protocol of Messrs. Fox and Forsyth :
• “ Under these circumstances, I would re
commend that, when wc are fully satisfied, ei
ther by the declarations of the Lt. Governor
of the Province of New Brunswick, or other
wise, that he has abandoned ajl idea of occu
pying the disputed territory with a military
force, and of attempting an expulsion of our
party, that then, the Governor be authorised
to withdraw our military force, leaving the
Land Agent with a sufficient posse, armed or
unarmed, as the case may require, sufficient to i
carry into effect your original design, that of
driving off or arresting the trespassers, and
preserving and protecting the timber from t
their depredations.
From such an act of jurisdiction—an at- j
tempt so right and proper in itself as this, and ■'
so imperatively called for by the circumstances j
of the case, we should not be driven by any j
power on earth. We ought not, however, j
wantonly to do more than is necessary. Wc j
want no military force in the territory, if there j
be no military force against us. Brave men j
would not battle with the air. We do want, j
however, men enough, armed, or unarmed, as
the case may require, to resist the marauders
and protect the timber; and »e want no more.
In pursuing this course, while we maintain
our just and honorable position, we do nothing
which our sister States can regard as mine-}
ccssarily provoking hostilities, and nothing
.vhich our Provincial neighbors can view as
indicating a hostile or even illiberal feeling.” ,
The acts of Gov. Fairfield are less liellige- j
rent than his message. All the force under!
Colonel Jarvis on the Aroostook, except about
ICO men and a detachment of troops from the j
Somerset division which was mustering at j
Skowhegan, have been disbanded. The tint-1
her cut by the trespassers on the Aroostook
will, it is said, be protected; while that cut on |
the waters of the St. John, where the princi
pal trespasses have been committed, will it is
believed be abandoned.
A Correspondent of the Boston Daily Ad
vertiser, writing from Augusta, says:
“Mr. Jarvis lias recently been here, and
state* that there is no appearance of war on
our borders. I understand his advice is, that
500 <>r 1000 men would be sufficient to pro
tect the timber already cut, and prevent any
further trespassing. His proposition is to hire
this number of men by the month, and when
tbqiy had nothing else to do, they might be at
vr.jrk in making roads through the forests in
that section of the state. This proposition is
a tery reasonable one, and will meet the ap
probation of all sensible men.”
The Boston Mercantile Journal sums up the
Eastern news, by the last mail, thus:
The troops are idle—and what is better,
there seemed to be no prospect of any employ
ment for souie tvvne to come, at least.
[From the Washington Globe.
We have been permitted to publish the fol
lowing note from Major General Sir John Har
vey to Governor Fairfield, in which the readi
ness of the former to give effect to the infor
mal agreement entered into between Mr. Fox
and Mr. Forsyth is distinctly avowed, and in a
commendable spirit:—
“Government House,
“Fredericton, N. B. March 7,1839.
“Major General Sir John Harvey presents ,
his compliments to Governor Fairfield, and
with refejpnce to a communication which he
has just received from her Majesty’s Minis- 1
ter at Washington, transmitting a ‘memoran
dum’ tinder the joint signatures of Mr. Forsyth
Secretary of State, and Mr. Fox, containing:
terms of accommodation recommended by lue :
Secretary of State and her Majesty’s Minister
Plenipotentiary, to Governor Fairfield and ;
himself respectively, begs to say, that he w ill
be happy to enter into such amicable cumum
cation with Governor Fairfield upon the sub
ject as may conduce to the attainment of the
very desirable and important object thereby
proposed to be effected.
“Sir John Harvey has answered Mr. Fox’s
communication by expressing his entire read
iness to give effect to the proposed agreement
so far as may he dependent upon him.
“His Excellency, Gov. FAiariEnn,” &c.
No decision upon the subject of this note ,
by the authorities of the State of Maine had
been made when the last advices of the Gov
ernment left. Augusta. We entertain the
most confident hope, however, that the amica
ble dispositions of Sir John Harvey will be
cordially reciprocated by them, and tiiat what
ever difficulties may arise in the arrangement
of the details for the exercise of a necessary
police over the disputed territory, they will be
made to yield to a mutual spirit of forbearance
and desire to maintain the peaceful relations
of the two countries.
Later.— The committee of the Legislature
to whom Gov. Fairfield’s message was referred,
have reported in the House of Representatives
the following Resolution, which was rc-com
mitted without debate. They made no other
report.
Resolved, That whenever the Governor of:
this State shall be fully satisfied, either by the !
declaration of the Lt. Governor of the province \
of New Brunswick, or otherwise, that he has
abandoned */) idea of occupying the disputed
territory with a military force or ot attempting
an expulsion oftlie civil force sent here under
our land agent—that then the Governor of this
State be authorised to withdraw our military
force, leaving the land agent, with a sufficient
posse, armed or unarmed as the case may re
quire, to drive out or arrest the trespassers,
and to preserve and protect the timber from
their depredations.

HIGH CORRESPONDENCE.
We noticed yesterday, in oor summary of
news from the East, that a communication
from Sir John Harvey to General Scott had
been received by Gen. Hodsdon, at liouiton,
! and forwarded by the latter express to Angus-!
1 ta. Wc have seen an extract from a letter!
written at Augusta on the Kith, which con- j
tains this gratifying passage:
“Gen Scott has received a letter from Sir:
John Harvey, which does honor to the head
and heart of the writer. If the British minis-:
try meet the question in the same spirit, our ■
friendly relations need not be interrupted.” |
fi e have only to add that the letter which j
we have seen, is from one who knows, and j
that the sentiment expressed in the extract |
may be considered as the sentiment of General i
Scott himself.
The Savannah Branch of the Darien Bank,
has suspended the payment of its notes in
specie.—Notice is given that early measures
will be adopted to enable it to resume, and
holders of its notes are advised not to make
any sacrifice in disposing of them.
A correspondent of the Georgian gives the j
following statement for the information of!

report made by the Bank to the last Legisla-1
ture:

W e are happy to learn from the Milledgc- j
ville Federal Union, that the militia force mus- j
lered by Gen. Nelson to protect our citizens
in that part of the State bordering on the,
Okefinoke, for the incursions of the Seminole;
and other Indians, arc now on their way.to|
Trader’s Hill, the place of rendezvous. The:
command consists of Capt. Cessna’s company
from Lumpkin county; Capt. Hunter’s from j
Cherokee; Capt. Brock’s from Cuss, and
Barker’s from Forsyth. John W. A.
adjutant General Nelson enters the service j
in connexion w ith Gen. Floyd, to w hom he \
yields the precedence in command during the j
campaign.
Foreign. — By the arrival of the packet
ships Duchess of Orleans and North America,
at New York, London and Liverpool dates to
the 7th, and Paris to the 9th of February have
been received. In Liverpool for the week
previous to the (ith, Cotton had been in fai;
demand, and prices continued steady. At the
latest dates the Cotton market at Havre was
quiet and very little doing—no decline how -
ever, had taken place in prices.
The most important intelligence is from;
Belgium. The King had prorogued the Cham
bers till the 4th of March, but wc find no
statement of the reason why.
The Belgian government was making prep
arations for war. Notice had been published
from the War Office that the government wa3 :
ready to make large purchases of horses; and
this notice w,\s issued in consequence-of the i
refusal of the Prussian government to allow
the exportation of horses, 3000 having been :
expected by the Belgian government from that
kingdom.
The State Rights Convention to nominate a
candidate for Governor will meet at Miiledge
ville on the first Monday in May next. The ;
Georgia Journal suggests the name of Hon.!
Henry G. Lamar, of Bibb County, as a suita- 1
ble person to be put in nomination in case the
present able and efficient Executive declines !
a re-noiui nation.
John Chapma% convicted of murder at the !
last term oftlie Superior Court of Bibb Coun
ty, and sentenced to be hung on the 23d of
this month, has had his execution respited by
the Governor till the 20th of December next.
Before that time arrives, the General Assem
bly us usual, will no doubt grant him a full
pardon.
A duel was fought near 'Moscow, Fayette (
County, (Tenn.) a few days previous to the Bth
inst. between Alex. J. Donelson, (the adopted
son of Gen. Jackson) and Henry Robeson, in
which both were slightly wounded. A second
meeting was to take place next day.
The editor of the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle
i has recently been shown some handsome spe- \
cimens of sewing silk, produced and u mufac
tured by Mr. lloss of Lincoln county, in this;
State. The mulberry used was the common ■
i mulberry of the South. Mr. R. gives it as;
t his opinion that it can be made a vastly more
profitable business than the raising of cotton.
Bank or France.— The Bank of France
has in its vaults two hundred and thirty-six
millions of francs in specie; its notes in cir-
I culation amount to twelve millions; the depos
ites on account of individuals, are fifty-nine
millions; deposites of the government, one hnn
dred and eighty millions; its port folio contains
I one hundred and sixty-five millions, consisting
of paper not yet due. The last amount shows
that the institution knows iiow to combine pru
dence with promptitude in affording facilities
1 to commerce.

Education in Ohio. —One thousand school
houses have been built and are now building
in Ohio, under the new Common School law
of the State. The several county law courts
are exercising a praiseworthy caution in ap
pointing School Examiners, whose business it
is to license teachers. The cause of educa
tion, says the New York American, appears
to be engaging as much of the public attention
in Ohio, as any other branch of state policy.
In 1830, the whole population of what is
now Wisconsin and lowa, was 36t55. Within
the last two years it has increased to 70,000.
The Commissioner of the Patent Office at
Washington gives notice that all assignments

Bank Post-notes. —lt was decided, last
week, in the Supreme Judicial Court of Mas
sachusetts, that bank post-notes are entitled to
grace, in the same manner as bilH of exchange
and promissory notes in general.
I A young woman brought before the Boston
Police, alleged in defence of her respectabili
ty, that she was acquainted with “all the law
yers in New York.” She was instantly com
mitted for six months.
Important .Yews from .Mexico. —Capt. Ross,
of the brig Delaware, arrived at this port yes
terday, in (5 days from Havana, informs us
that an English Corvette, in 7 days from Vera
Cruz, arrived at Havana in J 7 days, with the
important intelligence that after a conference,
held on board the French frigate Neruda,
| commanded by Admiral Bauden, between him
j and the Mexican Plenipotentiaries, the diffi
culties between France and Mexico have been
! adjusted to the satisfaction of France. It only
1 required the ratification on the part of the
| Mexican Government, when ail vessels would
i be permitted to discharge their cargoes.
By arrangement made with Admiral Uati
den, all the French who had been expelled
from Mexico are permitted to return immedi
ately.
Particulars of the treaty not transpired.
Numerous reports—one is, that Mexico agrees
to pay the amount due French citizens, and
expenses ’"lnch the French have incurred in
prosecuting the war.—[Char. Cour.
The editor of the Savannah Georgian thus
philosophically discourses on the hardness of
the times and the scarcity of money.
“Well” says a gentleman yesterday in our
hearing, “really, I have never known money to
be as scarce as it is at present.” This is the
cry of every one. We read the other day in a
western paper, of a gentleman, who thought
otherwise, and who, writing to his beloved, said
he was “driving a fine business”—that he made
at least “five dollars a clay, by pitching dollars. 1 "
Another paper says the times are so hard, that
the young men have becone “ desperate ,” mid
are getting married, because they can do no
better. Truly, money is a scarce commodity
in these our clays. In these times there is one
consolation left, however, —to be poor is to be
respectable, and to be rich, is to be vulgar. —
Why, you can’t find a man that will admit he
is rich. Even the best dressed exquisite that
walks the Bay. or the most comfortably gouty
old gentleman who moves about, cane in hand,
and who ever had the reputation of full pock
ets, will tell you, if you ask them, that they are
as poor as church mice—that they have not a
dollar! What then, are poor men to do in
these times? Now, as wc love to look at. the
bright side of things, we will tell thee, dearly
prized reader of thefairand immaculate (ieor
ginn—that print of prints—what we will do.—
We’ll just light this fine Principe —mark its
deep brown chocolate hud—and here we suit
the action to the word whifF!—whiff!!—
whiff!!—and cross our legs, and mean to drain
this decanter of Gai,-dry’s old Madeira, and—
wait till better times! Ha ! ha!! ha!!! Call ye
these hard times- Very laird indeed. “If any
body comes for money, hoy. tell him to come in,
and take a glass of wine—^ ‘■the banks don't dis
count."
Attempt at Swindling. —A short time since,
a person applied to a merchant of this city, to
obtain an advance of four thousand dollars) on
one hundred and sixty-three bales of Cotton,
stored in Savannah, for which a receipt of
storage was shown and sample exhibited. The
merchant, to whom the application was made,
stated that he could not make the-advance un
less the Cotton was shipped at Savannah, con
signed to him, and the bills of lading placed
in his possession, which, after some conversa
j tion, was agreed on by the parties.
Some suspicion having arisen in the mind
of the mtychant, he wrote to Savannah, re
questing a friend to make inquiries whether
the Cotton was in store, giving the name of the
I person who pretended to own it, (Henderson)
as also the name of the one said to have it in
store (R. Capin.) The anew wn that no
one of the name of Capin was known in Sa
vannah, nor could it bo ascertained tiiat there
was any Cotton in that city, belonging to a
Mr. Henderson.
The same day that this letter was received,
the swindler called on the merchant with a bill
of lading of 163 bales of Cotton, shipped on
board the steamer Penny, Capt. Penny, con
signed to W in. Henderson. The letter had no
postmark, but was endorsed, “borne by Mr.
Hester,” and drawn up in such a bungling
manner ns at once to convince any one of its
falsity. The rogue soon found that he was
suspected, returned to his lodgings, and in the
course of a very short period, shouldered his
baggage and decamped ; not however until he
had made a demonstration on the burlier of the
Hotel, by endeavoring to borrow fifteen dollars
from him. in which, however, 1«? was unsuc
cessful. lie represented himself as a Georgia
Planter, was about 30 years of age, erect in
his carriage, sallow complexion, well dressed,
and spoke freely of his acquaintance in Au
gusta, mentioning names well known in this
| city.
| It is hoped that this notice mnv attract gen
eral attention, in order to put others on their
guard ami lead to his detection and punish
ment. —[Charleston Courier, 21st. inst.
From Fi.oripa. —The following interesting
j extract of a letter from an officer of the army,
1 dated Key Biscayne, March 4, received in Sa
vannah, is published in the Georgian of that
city:
‘‘l arrived here on the Ist of M arch, af
ter being wind hound at Indian River for
ten days. Since the arrival of our regi
ment, here v 3 have lost eight men killed,
one officer, Cant. Russell, of tlie 2d Infan
try, and one officer wounded. The fate of
our lamented Captain is indeed a hard one.
He left a most interesting and lovely, fami
ly at Black Creek about u week ago, ex
pecting to return there in a short time.—
The men were killed at different places by
sneaking Indians, who came up lurking
about the posts, to pick off any poor devil
who ciiose to venture out too far. Capt.
llussell had occupied a post about one
mile above Fort Dallas on the Miami Riv
er and was returning to Fort Dallas with
his company in boats, when he was attack
ed by about 50 Indians. The first fire
was harmless; lie then gave orders to land :
immediately; he was the first man to jump
ashore, immediately lie was shot dead,'
riddled with balls; not another man was'
hurt until sometime in the middle of the j
action. They know officers well, and di
rect their fire on them particularly. The 1
officers wounded on another occasion was)
Lieut. Mackall of the Ist Artillery, lie
was walking on the beach with Capt. 1
Pointsett, of the Santee, picking up shells,
they were fired on by two Indians, one of
whom was Coacoochec, both halls struck
.Mackall, they immediately cut like thun
der. Mackall swam across the river, and
the Captain by diving in the surf and hid
ing along the shore escaped. Capt. Poin
sett says he k:*ew it was Coacoocheo, he
has seen him frequently at St. Augustine.
He was dressed out in his full war dress,
feathers and gorgets, after firing he says
lie brandished hi3 rifle, kicked out his leg,
gave a whoop, and disappeared in the
woods. We arc now in tiie reigon of
limes, cocoa-nuts, turtle, fish, Ac.”
FROM TAMPA BAY.
“Oi l ier, or Tin: Ni.ws.” )
| St. Augusti.m:, March 153 th, 1839. j
About the Ist. inst., Gen. Taylor ship
ped 2.50 Indians, consisting of (55 warriors,
women, children and negroes, westward.
The women were very reluctant to go,
and upbraided the men with cowardice, in
refusing to die upon their native soil.—
The vessels departed amid their lamenta
tions and taunts, and reproaches upon the
conduct of their warriors.
Among the negroes, is Abraham, well
known as an interpreter, and a wily and
treacherous rascal.
By the steamer Sanfrc, Capt. Poinsett,
from the Southern ports, we learn that the
troops are all well. No demonstrations of
the enemy since the affair at Miami —Lt.
Mackall is rapidly recovering.
Gen. Taylor has secured the above a
mount of Indians with but little noise—
and their shipment is the first intelligence
received by us, of even their capture.
A Foundlunu.—ln Savannah, on the night
of the 24th inst. a foundling was left in front
of the house of a colored woman, in India
street.
L appears that on that night, about ten
o’clock, a tap was heard' at tiic colored wo
man's door, who answered it, when a man laid
anew born child, but a few hours old, at the
door, and ran awav. It was a line female
child.
The best part of the tale, for the credit of
humanity, remains to he told. It appears that
a respectable lady of this city, lias adopted the
poor little foundling, and under her auspices,
it may yet become a useful member of society.
Thus Providence lias found a protector for the
little innocent thus ‘-'thrown on the Fatherhood
of God.”
Comment on this subject is useless, as we
rejoice to say, these cases are very novel. But
w e hope that our police will be on the alert to.
detect the perpetrators-of such barbarities, ‘if
they are ever repeated.
VVe Believe, indeed that this case is unpre
cedented in Savannah. A child deserted by
its parent, formed no part, until now of our
annals.—[Georgian.

freely introduced, but only such as tend to
make the reader better acquainted with the*
country. _
The most perfect impartiality is Shown to
very sect of Christians, and such details giv
en of the various missions as will make the
work equally acceptable to every persuasion.
Such sketches are given of the history of
the countries, towns, and missions which are
describid, as serve to throw fight upon their
present condition.
The map is beautiful!,- executed, and may
he considered original. Many important correc
tion.-: have been made by actual observation,
and the remainder is chiefly drawn from origin
al and unpublished surveys by British officers,
engineers, end surveyors, to which the author
was politely granted access.
The pictures are wholly new, and form an
important addition to our stock of oriental il
lustrations: n > pains or expense has been spared
in the meciiamenl execution of these. Fivo
are on steel, showing landscapes of Mauk
mein, Tavoy, Alergui. A,::, and a page exhibit
ing specimens of 15 dim-rent oriental languages.
The remainder are on wood, showing cos
tumes, implements, buildings, fruits, &c.
A great part of the work relates to countries
almost entirely unknown, even to the best in
formed persons in our country.
Though the work contains a large amount
of missionary and rcligiowa details, yet it con
sists chiefly of geographical, hiatorical, politi
cal, and statistical information, designed for
general readers.
The author, from the important character of
his mission, his intercourse with distinguished
civilians and experienced missionaries, his d.--
libeiato stay at eaeh place, iiis previous famili
arity with foreign countries, and his long ex
perience in the Board of Missions enjoyed tin*
highest advantages for gathering ample and
correct details.
Chapters on the mode of conducting modern
missions; on the measure of success which has
attended the enterprise; on the almost un
known tribes in and around Rurmah; and oth
er important subjects, are added at the clc-so of
the work, and constitute no small part of iu
value.
A laborious and complete index is appended
j the work; together with a glossary of ori
ental terms; in which three hundred and eigh
ty words are not oniy lucidly defined, but ac
cented so as to show their proper pronunciation.
The coat of the two volumes will probably
not exceed 50, at which price it will be ono
ot the cheapest works issued from the Ameri
can press. The publishers roly for remunera
tion rat nor on a large sale than a high price.
A portion of the proceeds of the u-erk are ap
propriated to the Foreign M.ssionary Board.
