Hit Excellency Wilson Lumpkin;
g l>: I have the honor to enclose you the
semi-annual return of the Farmers’ Bank of Chat
tahoochee, shewing its condition on the first
Monday of the present month. The Bank, from
its suspension up to the date of the enclosed
statement, has never failed to apply all its means, I
as fast as they have become available, to the re
demption of its notes, although it has not been in !
a situation, until recently, to commence a general
redemption of its circulation. The sum of $84,-!
480, has been withdrawn from circulation lietwccn
the periods mentioned, leaving a very smalt sum
unredeemed, and which the Bank is now pre
pared to lake up, whenever presented.
The Bank owed its suspension, in part, to the
large amount of its capital being locked up in ac
commodation loans, which, although considered
good, were not available when the Bank was
pressed. These debts have been greatly reduced
by gradual payments, and a system has been
adopted which will ensure their early discharge,
and place the Bank in possession of ample funds
for mote active operations. It is not the intention,
however, ol the present officers of the institution,
to make any further amission of its bills for the
present; but to discount solely upon the bills of
other banks, and confining our operations exclu
sively to bills of exchange and business paper, do
a small and safe business, and thus gradually re
gain the public confidence.
I'hia bank, although it has been compelled to
suspend specie payments for a time, has neverthe
less always been perfectly solvent; and this fact
having been generally known by the community,
no great loss has been sustained by the dcprccia
tion of its currency. The amount of bad debts is
very trifling, and should the doubtful debts be
eventually unavailable the loss will scarcely be
felt by the institution, as it will be covered by a
large item of interest due to the bank, upon dis
counted notes, and which being as yet unsettled,
is not included in the statement now submitted.
A large portion of the business of the bank having
been transacted at Clarksville, it was necessary to
receive the return from tile offledf who has charge
of that branch of its concerns, before the state of
the Bank could tie known and exhibited to your
Excellency. This circumstance will account for
the delay which has occurred in transmitting the
enclosed return.
I am, very respectfully, &c.

CHARLESTON MAIL.
5 The following letters were handed us yesterday
. by our Post Master. It will be seen, that after
t the first day of December next, the mail to and
, from Charleston, will not lie conveyed by the
I South Carolina Canal and Rail Road Company,
j However we may regret the necessity of this nrea
' | sure, the Post Master General is not to blame, as
| lie is not authorized, by law, to give out contracts,
I without requiring bonds for their faithful dis
charge; and alt mail eonlraclors are subject to
fines for not delivering the mails at the time spe
| eified. The South Carolina Rail Road Company
arc willing to carry the mail, but they must carry
it as they please—they must be free, sovereign,
, and independent, if they undertake to serve the
public-esplllhs and penalties were made for slaves;
not for the Directors of the South Carolina Rail
! Road Company—although these same officers
I exact penalties even from, we believe, the con
ductors of tlroir baggage cars. They are willing
to take the Game, but all blame the Post Office
! Department must keep to itself. If the Savannah
or northern mails arrive an hour after they arc due,
| the poor contractors must be fined for a failure;
! but should the Charleston mail arrive a day after
f>l w <luo (for instance List week)—the Post Mas 4(
ter Oencfal must fold his arms, and our citizens
, "just pul up With the inconvenience, because the
, Charleston mail is brought on the very accom
modating South Carolina Rail lload I A word
, t 0 these independent directors—this road was
built for the mutual benefit of yourselves and the
public—the more accommodating you are to the
public, the better support you will receive from
that public. But, gentlemen, follow the liberal
I P oli( 7 you have extended so far, and you will
find that the public can do without you, You
are mistaken if you think because you say this or
that thing must be done—it will be so. Orlk
merchants save nothing by shipping on your
road. You must recollect that the Savannah
River is a rival.

Soctiikrn Division, 5
November 19t/i, 1835.3
Art*—Herewith you will receive a copy of a
letter of the 18th instant, from the Post Master
General to the President of the South Carolina
Canal and Rail Road Company,
In accordance with the information therein
contained, you will trot, of course, deliver to that
company any mail to he carried after the last day
of the present month.
Directions will be given to the Post Master at
New 3 ork, not to forward by tiro Steam Packet
any other matter than such as may he destined
for the delivery and irtimediutc distribution of
Charleston and Savannah, until some new ar
rangement can be made.
The Post Master General regrets the necessity
of interrupting the transportation of the mails
by the Rail Road; hut when no alternative is left
him, but what he conceives to he a violation of
the law, in obedience, too, to a requisition made
in a mariner not tire most conciliatory, he has no
hesitation as to the course which duty requires
him to adopt.
Very rcspcctfullv, your oh’t servant,

POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT.
Southern Division,?
A’ovember 18t/i, 1835. 5
Sir —The Senior Assistant Post Master Gene
ral has just laid before rne your letter of the 9th
hist, and the papers which belong to the case.
\ou inform me that “at a meeting of the
Board of Directors of this company (South Caro
lina Canal and Rail Road Company) held on the
7th insl. lire letter of Robert Johnson, Account
ant, in reply to Iny [your] application for pay
ment Was submitted, when, after due deliberation,
it was resolved, that the Post Office Department
be informed, that a contract having been made and
executed, between this Company and John
McLean, as agent of the Department, and subse
quently confirmed by the Assistant Post Master
General, by letter dated 13th July, 1835, and all
duties therein undertaken having been fully per
formed, they must repeat their application for
payment; and should it not be complied with,
that the transportation of the mail will be discon
tinued after the first of December next.’’
The letter of Mr Johnson Was predicated on a
general instruction, having no special reference to
your Company. But as it is the duty of the Post
Master General to see that all contractors execute
contracts in the manner required by law, your
Company, standing in that relation to the Depart
ment, cmdd not be made an exception.
On reference to tire paper sent by you to the
Department as a contract, and tire letter of the
Assistant Post Master General, which your Com
pany allege confirmed it, I find that the former is
not such a contract as the Post Master General
could lawfully accept; and that the latter, though
ambiguous in some of its expressions, carried with
it, in the form of a eontrael, drawn up at the De
partment, and forwarded to you for execution,
is evidence not to he mistaken that the form sent
by you was not accepted. This your Company
declined to execute, and there is consequently no
written contract between tile parties.
Doubtless a frank and mutual interchange of
opinions and facts, might have led to the execu
tion of a contract, which would have been accept
able to both parlies, and at the same time in con
formity with the requisitions of law. But for any
negotiation on lire subject, your Company have
given no time, by their peremptory notice, that
unless their own views be recognized, and their
claims paid forthwith, they will cease to carry
the mails on the first of next month.
I am sensible that the discontinuance of the
transportation of the mails upon your Road, will
produce some public inconvenience, and much
complaint; yet, a prospect of that sort will not
induce me to do, or to sanction, what in my con
science I believe to bo contrary to law, as well as
all true policy.
Directions will, accordingly, be given to the
Postmasters at Charleston and Augusta, as well
as the intermediate points, to deliver no mails to
your Company for transportation after the last
day of the present month.
(Signed) AMOS KENDALL.
John Ravcncl, Esq. President S. C. C. & R.
R. Company.
We arc requested, by the Post Master, to
say, that after the first December next, the
Charleston mail will he forwarded via Savannah,
Until another arrangement can be made.
Georgia Presbytery vs. Abolitionists. —The
following extract from the minutes of the Geor
gia Presbytery, at their late session in Savannah,
is worthy the enlightened patriotism of tire min
isters and laymen of that Church.
“Whereas, an excitement has been raised by
northern pretended philanthropists on a subject
deeply interesting to every citizen and Christian
in these United States; and especially so, to
every individual in this section of our country;
and whereas, many Ministers at the north, calling
themselves Presbyterians, have engaged in the
crusade against oUr rights as citizens, and our pri
vileges as chrislianv, to the prejudice of tile good
name of Presbyterians in the south; and where
as, this Presbytery consider this as an unrighteous
interference with a subject with which they have
no sort of business ; wherefore
“ Resolved, Ist, That the Presbytery have no
common feeling with those men, nor with their
: opinions, nor with their measures—that their
I conduct is abhorrent to us, and in the opinion of
I this Presbytery, in entire opposition to, both the
I letter and spirit of the Gospel.
I “ Resolved, 2d, That the Presbytery will coun-
I tcnance no minister —nor merchant—nor mechan-
I ic—nor any other man, come from whence he
I bray, who holds the sentiments of northern abo-
I litinnists: we will ever consider such as inceudi
l arica, whatever may be their profession —the
, enemies of our country—the disturbers of our
, churches—the destroyers of the peace of our
I families, and of all that we hold dear.
I “Resolved, 3d, That we disapprove of the
I action of the late General .Assembly of the Pres-
I byterian Church on the subject, so far as the ap
, pointment of a committee for its consideration,
, and we would earnestly beseech that committee
) and our next general assembly, to beware what
they do—lest they bring about that in the Church
. which threatens to be brought about in the State
j —the separation <f the North from the South.
emftic&Q&ft',
“Resolved, 4th, That our beloved southern
. on may calm their fears in regard to their min
yr isters and elders—they reject the tenets and doc
r trines of abolition, and solemnly declare, for
] themselves and their churches, that they never
3 •were nor ever can he abolitionists.
. “ Resolved, 6lh, That while wo thus freely
• express our sentiments on this exciting subject,
i we deprecate the proceedings of those who con
, trary to all la\V, arc punishing real, or supposed
• alienees, hy the summary process of violence.—
) While We condemn fanaticism in others, let us
■ not become fanatics of an equally lawless kind,
ourselves. The constitutions of the country, and
the laWs of the land, arc sufficient for our protec
tion. We exhort our people, therefore, to sup
port and maintain the majesty and supremacy of
the laws, und to put down all who violate them,
as equally dangerous to the peace and safety of
the country as abolitionists themselves.
“The above resolutions were passed by a unani
mously vote.

The Legislature of this State
I >was ill Session at our latest accounts from De

the appropriate officers, and Mr. Mason, the go

I his document is published in the Detroit papers,
and it is a creditable paper enough, though not
quite so transcendental as the Free Press”
seems to consider it. The Girtvcrnor says, how
ever, that the Territorial Governor is superceded,
and here we are little puzzled. We are not of the
opinion that the President of the United States
will so consider the matteir. We arc rather in

Extract of a letter received in Charleston.
“Nkw-Ohleans, Nov. 14.
Here the Cotton market continues dull—the
sales of the week amount to about 5000 bales, at
a decline of j a Jc. on last week’s prices. The
principal purchases made wore for French account.
Colton continues to arrive very slowly for the
season of the year, when the gins are all in full
operation. We do not, however, infer therefrom
any deficiency in the crop, but rather, that the
planters arc not satisfied with the declining prices,
and prefer holding in their own stores.
A few parcels of new Sugar appeared in the
market and brought 0 cents.”
Selma (Ala.) MabkF.t, Nov. 14.
Cotton had a favorable appearance during the
week. The rise in our river and consequent
lower freights, has brought life and activity in our
cotton business. We quote fair to line 13J to
14 J cents per lb.
N i:\v-Yoru: Market, Nov. 21.
The fall trade is fast closing, most of tire Goods
for the West have already gone. From the
South we arc beginning to receive largo supplies
of produce. The money market is a little reliev
ed. Public attention, is very much directed to
Washington, much anxiety prevails as to the
President’s Message.
Cotton. —lmport from the 14th to the 21st inst.
3023 bales. The demand during the week has
been steady, and although from the general wish
of holders to realize prices, in many instances a
small reduction in price has been submitted to, yet
wc cannot alter our quotations of this day week.
The sales, which have been in a great measure
for France and to our domestic manufacturers,
who have bought freely, amount to about 2000
bales, viz. 1500_Uplands at 140,17 c. 350 Alabama

the Southern crop has been light—the price clo
ses this fall much higher than it has for several
years—the general feeling prevails that prices
will be sustained for some time; the stock on
