We now have to notice ( the entry of Hswson & Bacon’s Store, in a sim- f ilar manner, on Saturday night. The Thief or t Thieves entered by the window on Mclntosh i Street, and appear to have had not a little know- i ledge of the localities of things in the Store, as I well as the easiest place at which to cflhct their I purpose. They took between 60 and 70 dollars I in cash from the desk and drawers, among which were S?4O of the Ice Company, The Company’s 1 bag of Specie was as empty next morning, as if it had been full of the perishable article in which they deal, and had lain beneath the noon-day sun. They did not seem to want physic, or did not understand the labels, and left every thing in ( that litie in statu quo. — Courier of Monday. , — ——- I THE DEPOSITS BILL. We have been politely furnished by a gentle- | man of this city, with the following extract of a letter, Written by a member of Congress, and dated “Washington, June 22J, 1836. Last night, the House of Representatives passed the bill that originated in the Senate, for distributing the Surplus Revenue, by depositing latealily with the several States. It passed the House with an amendment, that docs not materi ally affect it, and will be concurred in by the , Senate. A Veto which was for some time threat ened, is not now apprehended.” By reference to an article which wc copy from the U. S. Telegraph, it will be seen that the amendment of the House of Representatives, mentioned in the above letter, has been concur red in by the Senate, with hut two dissenting voices. The vote on the passage of the Bill, in the House, was, Ayes, 155—Nays, 38. ABOLITION PUBLICATION. Tiie Charleston Mercury of Saturday last B ays:—“ We caution our readers against a work recently received in this city, entitled “ Tales of the Woods and Fields.” Appended to it is a Sermon on Abolition, worthy of the execrable Thompson. It has been sent to the Messrs. Bab cock, but they fortunately discovered the charac ter of it in time, and have sent us a copy, with a request that we will state that it shall be imme diately returned.” (Jj*Messrs. Rickards & Stott, Booksellers, of this city, have also received the disgraceful Work, mentioned in the above paragraph, (which is intended to deceive the public in a most shame ful manner,) and have very properly determined 1(0 return all the copies to the publishers; for l which they are entitled to, and will receive, the gratitude aud approbation of every friend of the South. Publishers at the North, who feel no more regard for our domestic institutions than to otward incendiary publications to their agents at the South, for sale and distribution, ought to be treated with scorn and contempt by our citi zens, instead of continually receiving their sup port and patronage; by which means, if they were not governed by .principle, interest would control them, and prevent their frequent attempts to injure and deceive us. We will hereafter ob tain aud publish the names of those who forward incendiary publications to tin. city for rale. TEV .V ESSE E VOLT JJ TEE RS. Gan. Glascock has just received the following letter, (says the Courier of Monday last,) an nouncing the policy of stationing a force among the Chcrokccs, which he and the rest of our de legation have boon strenuous in urging on the War Department, as necessary to the safety of Jour people: War Department, Juno 18, 1836. It may he agreeable to you, to know that, with a view to prevent or suppress any hostilities a mong the Cherokee Indians, a Brigade of Ten nessee Volunteers, amounting to from one thou sand to twelve hundred men, one half mounted and the other half Infantry, will rendezvous at Athens, on the 7th of July, and proceed imme diately to the Cherokee country. Brevet Brig. Gen. Wool has been assigned to the command, and ho is authorized, should circumstances re quire it, to call for an additional force, and to take all necessary measures for the suppression of hostilities among those Indians', should any occur, and for their immediate removal. Very respectfully, Your most obedient servant, LEWIS CASS. CREEK WAR. The Columbus Sentinel of the 24th inal., con tains the following postcript;—“We stop the press to say that information has just reached TWELVE HUNDRED Hostile Indians have this day (Thursday,) surrendered them selves at Fort Mitchell, with all Iheir arms, &c. Wc cannot vouch for the above, hut it comes ve ry straight.” Extract of n letter, dated Columbus, June 25. “The war will now end, I am in hopes, in a few days. The whole Indian territory is now surrounded. Yesterday 600 hostile Indians came to Fort Mitchell and delivered themselves up—about 700 reported friendly ones, but who robbed aud burnt houses, were taken by the for ces under the command of Gen. Moore, station ed in our section, a few days before I left Irwin ton. I now consider ourselves very safe.”— Sentinel, The following extract of a letter dated Colum bus, June 25th, is all the information we could obtain by last evening’s mail. “Yesterday a party of us, in company of the Governor and suit, went down on board the steamer Metamora, to Port Mitchell, to sec the Indians that came in the day before and surrendered themselves pri soners of war. There is I think about seven hundred in ail, men, women and children—2so were warriors,and were well armed and equipped Jim Henry with his party was supposed to he some 10 or 14 miles below in a large swamp, and Gen. Scott on one side of the river and Gen. Jes sup on the other in pursuit of them, and it is thought they will have a fight with them in a day or two. I have no doubt myself hut the war is nearly over with the Creeks. They have ta ken two of the Indians that were engaged in rob bing the mail, and killed another. They were on their way to Fort Mitchell with them, hut had not arrived when I left. I have heard hut little of the Small Pox since I have been here.”— Constitutionalist of yesterday. Auousta, June 24th, 1836. The Washington City Volunteers a.fived in the City of Augusta, Goo., on the 24th lust. and were politely taken by the hand, by the Citizens of the place, and treated as brothers by .them, (glad to sec us repairing to the scene of action and to protect their Western Frontier from the wild Savages.) On account of the treatment which we have received from the young men of this place, we consider it our duty to make known publicly in how much better a manner wc have been received in Augusta thou in other places through which we have passed. Wc were po litely invited to attend a dinner in the city, hut on account of our march, we were obliged to de cline the invitation. With gieat thanks to the citizens, we hereunto annex our names. W.

We are gratified to learn from all quarters of our district, since the wheat harvest has commen ced, that the crops me much better than was ex pected. It was at one time supposed, that they were much injured by the heavy and continued rains in May and the early part of June, but the • opinion seems now to be very general, that more i than an average crop will bo made.— Messenger. ■ j Appointment by the President —By and with , j the advice and consent of the Senate: Albion K. i j Parris, of Maine to he Second Comptroller of ! j the Treasury in the place of James B. Thornton, i | appointed Charge d’Affaires to the Republic of , Peru. s It is stated in a recent publication, asauming to , be based on well ascertained facts, that of one hundred and seventy eight million of inhabitants in Europe, seventeen millions nine thousand are beggars, oi persons who subsist at the expense of the community, without contributing to its re- I sources. Large and valuable cargo. —The ship Chi na, Lannour, cleared on Saturday last for Liver * | pool by Messrs.

Tennessee Volunteers. —The alacrity with' which Volunteers present themselves to repel the savage aggressions at the South, is gratifying, and fully sustains our prediction, that the call would he promptly met. We learn that in town about eighty enrolled themselves yesterday.—We are also assured that two or throe hundred will soon be in readiness to march from this county, to join their brethren in arms at the rendezvous.— Nashville Republican. Fire. —A fire occurred between one and two o’clock this morning in the Paint shop of Messrs. Varden & Fabian, the East end of Hard Alley, adjoining Mr, J, Marsh & Son’s Ship yard, sup posed to be the act of an incendiary, as the build ing had been shut up at 4 o’clock on the previous afternoon and there had been no light on the pre mises since that time. The shop and kitchen were burnt down but no other injury was sus tained, except the loss of materials, supposed to be Worth about $1000; no insurance.— Southern Patriot, %sth iust. Naval. —The Pensacola Gazette of the 18th Inst, says :—“ The U. S. Cutler Jefferson, under the command of Capt. Jackson, arrived hero on the 13th inst. twelve days from Tampico. All intercourse was forbidden there between vessels of war and the shore. Merchant vessels are permit ted to enter the harbor but not to depart. This seems to be the case at present, at all the Mexican ports. While the Jefferson lay off’the harbor, intelligence was received at Tampico of the cap line of Gen. Santa Anna. The flags of the ves sels in port and of tile fortifications, wore hoisted at half-mast, in sign of mourning for the event. Active preparations were making to assemble a large military force to march upon Texas. Every department of Mexico was required to furnish its quota of this service, to tic asserntilouh ut Matamn ras. Much excitement prevailed among the in habitants of all classes. Apprehensions were entertained that Santa Anna and his follow prisoners had been put to death by the Texians, and Resolutions were publicly adopted and pro mulgated by the provisional government, that no act of concession of Santa Anna to the Texi ans, while a prisoner, should be regarded as valid. Capl. Jackson was not even permitted to com municate with Mr. Robertson, our Consul at Tampico, except through the commanding Gene ral Gomez, The U. S. steamer America, one of the boats lately purchased by the Government, is to leave here to day for the Apalachicola. She is to he surrounded with bulwarks, and to bo manned with fifty sailors from the Constellation. The following officers arc to go in her ; Incut. John son, Commander, Passed Midshipman John F. Bouden, Dr. Wedderdubn, Midshipmen Mc- Cobmick and Shields.” The same paper says :—“Capt. Tbesuvan, of the Texian Army, passed through this place on his way from Texas to South Carolina, on Tues day lust. Capt. T. was with Fannin when he was captured, and was one of the only three or four who escaped the massacre. Ho gives some particulars, connected with this melancholy and disgraceful tragedy, which vve hud not before heard. It seems the Texiun prisoners were marched out and formed in line before they had any intimation of the fate which awaited them. Alter (hoy had been disposed of in the manner best suited to the object which the Mexican com mander had in view, that ofilcer, with much ap parent emotion, announced to the prisoners that it was his painful duty to have thorn all shot, and recommended to them to make their peace with Heaven. A few only survived the fire of the Mexicans, and among them was our informant, who contrived, under cover of the smoke, to break through tire Mexican outposts and make his es cape. In company with a Kentuckian, whose name is not given, he wandered through the woods and prairies for several days, and at length reached the army of Gen. Houston, Captain T. states positively that Col. Fannin was not among the slain, but with a physician of his own force, was preserved, and is still a prisoner with the Mexicans.” Mr, Calhoun's Speech on the Deposits Dill. — The Alexandria Gazette noticing the speech says ; “ Mr. Calhoun’s speech on the ‘ bill to regulate the deposites of the Public Money,’ was very highly praised at the lime it was delivered, in the Senate. A perusal of it in print has satisfied us that the praise was not undeserved.—it is a close, compact mass of reasoning—lull of the energy of the speaker’s mind,with that energy mainly develp. ed in strengthening the force of his argument, and binding it together as a solid whole. In the natural course of his speech he exposed the enormity, of Senator Wright’s project, and his exposure only aided him in the elucidation ofhis own views, ami gave an illustration of the correctness of his own propositions. How incomparably superior is such an elfin t to the vapid, windy, frothy, harangues too often uttered on the floor of Congress, ‘ full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Mr. Cal houn’s fame as a statesman is made secure by such exhibitions ofhis mental power. He may cheer fully leave the low ambition for place to others, ’ whilst his own towering mind seeks the summit ’ of that distinction which can only he awarded to urcat men making great exertions in behalf of their country.” ! The following case of interest to Southerners, ’ was brought before the Court of King’s Bench, at Montreal. A Mrs. Marvin, of Charleston, S. C. arrived at Montreal attended by a colored - girl, who was supposed (o be her slave. A wtit of Habeas Corpus was served upon the lady, and ’ the girl consequently brought into court, for the ’ purpose of testing the right of a slave to obtain * unqualified freedom, immediately on entering Canada. On tbe part of Mrs. Marvin it was al ledged that the girl was no slave, but an appren f tice”, and that she was under bonds to tbe amount -of a thousand dollars to restate her to her parents. - But the patties who procured the writ, on the Y other hand, alledged that the girl might never- I tireless have been the slave of those who had 3 bound or hired her to Mrs, Marvin, and was 3 therefore equally entitled to liberty. Ibo * having considered ah th® puliculars of the case, i' directed the girl to bo returned to Mrs. Marvin, a: i her legally engaged apprentice,—.V, T.

The resolution, which embraces the feeling of the Committee, and places tbe subjecl before the Senate, for its action, is as follows : "Res /veil, That the Independence of Texas ought to be acknowledged, whenever satisfactory information shall have been received that it has in operation a government capable of sustaining it as ail independent Territory.

ABE LAB la, Juno 20. -Money. —The Girard Bank must have paid out more than half a million of dollurs last week on account of the French indemnity ; and as it was known that the sum would be payable at that time, we may suppose that it was not necessary to di minish discounts in order to meet the payments. We learn (of course unofficial) that the United Stales Bank last week made largo discounts, not less perhaps than a million of dollars in this city —ami it is not likely that a curtailment will soon be rendered necessary, although we should sup pose that some of its discounts mdst have been made directly upon its specie.— U.
