opinion, as well as an enlightened Grand Jury, considers
Mr. Ragsdale as having acted only in self-defence.
TRIAL or THOMPSON FOR TIIE KILLING
OF SEARCY.
It is impassible for us to picture to our rondem the in
tense interest which the trial of this young man, a youth
of only nineteen summers, excited iu our community,-—
The novelty of the case, and the circumstances that in
duced him to take the law into his own hands and per
petrate the deed, were sufficient of themselves to create
unusual excitement favorable to the prisoner; but when
we add to this the tlirilliag eloquence of the able counsel
who conducted the defence, language would fail us,
were we to attempt to oonvey to our readers any just
idea of the feelings which pervaded the bosom of almost
every one in attendance upon the trial. The counsel
on the part of the State ably discharged their duty- The
closing speech of the Solicits General was an efliirt of
cool, unimpassioned reasoning Ujiun the law of the land,
weHcalculated hi impress up-m a jury the necessity of
discharging their uolenm duty, however excited might
their sympathies be in behalf of the prisoner.
It was our intention to give to our readers a report of
this trial, hut uodorstanding that a member of the bar
intends publishing in pamphlet term a full amount of it*
with the speeches of those engaged both in the prosecu
tion tad defence of the prisoner, we have abandoned ou r
design, and will briefly present, in lieu thereof tiie fol
lowing hastily written stateineut
The prisoner was charged with the murder of Searcy,
who, upon his death-bed, affirmed, as the witness in be
half nf the State (Dr. Case) testified, that “ho was in
his back yard about 9 o’clock, P. JVL, and heard a noise in
the direction of Mrs. Thoinpsou’s bouse, and knowing
Thompson had been intoxicated during the day, supposed
he was abusing his mother, and went up to sec the cause
of the disturbance, and that when be arrived within a
few yards of the house, the prisoner rushed upon him,
without speaking, shot him, and then cut him with a
bowie-knife,” of which wounds ho died.
The defence was chiefly placed upon negativing the
dying declarations of the deceased, by a connexion of
circumstances iu diroct conflict, with the statement made
by the deceased in extremis. The counsel for the defence
endeavored to establish by those circumstances that de
ceased was sliot in the bed room of defendant’s mother,
and that deceased was fresh from an adulterous bod when
lie received at tiie hands of the son, a youth of nine
teen, the mortal wound. No express malice was prov
en to deceased. On the contrary, habits of friendship
with the sons of the deceased, as also with the deceased^
existed previous and up to the time of killing. The
counsel (or accused assumed tliat it was a new case—
that not a precedent w as to be found in tin? law books ei
ther way,—in reference to the right of a son to punish
with death, in the heat of resentment, the adulterer of his
mother. This was not denied on the part of the State,
and the Judge, in charging the Jury, assented to the de
claration of prisoner’s counsel tliat it was a novel case.
Counsel for State and Prisoner, and order in which
they addressed the Court:
1st Washington Poe, Es<*, State’s Counsel.
2d. Iverson L. Hvruis, Esvj, Prisoner’s 44
3d. Robert V. Hardeman, State’s 44
4th. Francis II. Cone, Prisoner’s 44
Otlu Wm. Y. Mansell, State’s 44
6Ul Augustus II. Kenan, Prisoner’s 44
The Solicitor General, Col. Foster, then closed in be
half of the State.
The J udge’s charge was able and impressive.
The Jury retired on tho second day of the trial about
dusk, and after an absence of about tweuty hours, returu-
od the following verdict:
44 We, the Jury, find the Prisoner guilty of Volunta
ry Manslaughter in defence of his mother, as the relation
of husband and wife; and pray tho Court to extend to
him his utmost clemency.”
The Court passed upon the Prisoner the slwrtcst term
of imprisonment in the Penitentiary that the law permit
ted, viz: two years. The Prisoner, during the trial,
conducted himself with great decency aud modest de
portment. IIis }h rsonal appearance was well calculated
to elicit the deep sympathies of the community.
WHO SHALL BE OUR NEXT GOVERNOR?
Anxiety upon this important subject, has induced many
of the Van Buren papers to give utterance to their
thoughts, during the last two or three weeks, in a style
tliat plainly indicates they being to feel the slender foun
dation upon which their hopes of electing Judge Mr Don.
aid arc based. The six good reasons assigned in a Sa
vannah paper why Judge McDonald should he elected,
wc shall notice occasionally during tho electionooring
canvass. At present, if we may be allowed to give ex.
pression to our opinions, when those opinions are based
upon the public acts of the Van Buren candidate for Go
vernor, we will be compiled to assert that a more un
compromising Federalist than Judge McDonald has been,
does not exist within the limits of Republican Georgia.
The weak effort to make it appear tliat he is a turncoat,
and tliat he now disavows doctrim‘8 which lie has sus
tained during his past political life, is not only doing in
justice to tiie private virtues of the Judge, but it is a
course that the ]>ooplo, who arc not to be duped in this
matter, will not countenance in any party, or in any man.
For our own part, we are prepared to prove, and will do
so before the election, that Judge McDonald has advo
cate all the doctrines, and entertained al! the sentiments*
that distinguish the high toned Federaist, from the ar
dent and patriotic Republican. But it is not upon the
demerits ol Judge McDonald, ns a )ioliti* rail, that the
State Right*. Party expert to defeat him iu the ensuing
contest. The character, and political principles of Judge
Doit.iierty arc to accomplish this. Ilia firmness as a
politician, his ability as a jurist, his cuiineuceas astates-
liun, and his virtues as a man, will decide who is to be
our Next Governor! lie, at least, will not Is 1 found re

EXTRA VAGAN CL UF NATIONAL EXPEND!*
TfcRER
We have occasionally adverted to the topic of the ex-
travaganee of the National Expenditures, and we
cannot help but feel tliat it is a subject winch should
command the serious attention of the American |K*opl<*.
If our Government is ever to bo restored to its original
purity, the first effective blow, to the accomplishment of
so desirable a result, must be given fry the jeople, and it
must be struck at the extravagance of our public offi
cers. Who is there, in the present day, will dare to
controvert the charge, so often made, that there is, in
the administration of the affairs of the General Govern
ment, ail extravagant, and wasteful expenditure of the
peoples’ money ? If there be one no far behind the history
of tlu times, and he seeks for proof, let him but examine
the official reports of the officers of every Department of
the Government, aud ho will find not only enough to sa
tisfy him of the truth of the charge, but lie will retire
from the investigation with a consciousness that the
days of Republican simplicity arc passed, and that they
are no longer models used for imitation by our present
public functionaries.
We have before us a paper which furnishes us with
a few facts in relation to this subject which we desire, on
the present occasion, to present to our readers. The
r onlingent expenses of the House of Representatives in
1839, amounted to the extravagant sum of two hun
dred AND SEVENTY-TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS. Of this
sum there is charged for making pens, only three hun
dred AND SIXTY-EIGHT DOLLARS. Also, THIRTY-TWO
dollars and seventy-five cents for snuff. Five hun
dred AND TEN DOLLARS, for FOLDERS AND SEALS. Six
HUNDRED AND NINETY EIGHT DOLLARS for CARTRIDGE
paper. Four thousand three hundred and sixty-
six DOLLARS for HORSE HIRE—and ONE HUNDRED AND
forty-five dollars for a single paper, the Gloiie. So
much for the few items of, among the many, contingent
expenses of the House of Representatives during the
last session. In the General Post Office Department,
wo Find an itom r.Imrgod thus, *far dinners at Taverns
for Clerks,” one hundred and eighty-eight dollars,
and three hundred and eighty-seven dollars for
Newspapers. In the War Department, eight hundred
and eighty-four dollars and eight cents for Newspa
pers. In the Treasury Department, nine hundred and
scventy-seven dollars and ninety-three cents, and in
the Navy Department, four hundred and fifty dol
lars and seventy cents for Newspapers, also. Making
in tho aggregate, for the public offices in Washington
City, the enormous sum, for Newspapers, of TWO
THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND NINETY-
NINE DOLLARS AND SEVENTY ONE CENTS.
What prodigality !! In addition to this, let any one
take the trouble to examine how the different appropria
tions of Congress have been disbursed by public agents,
and lie will find the same extravagance pervading every
department of the Government, from the I’residcnt him
self down to the scullion in the kitchen.
( Intimately connected with this subject is the negli
gence of the Administration to enforce settlements with
public agents who fail to make them at the proper period*
and to punish defaulters. Who would for a moment
supjx)sc that when the Government was forced to the is
suing of Treasury Notes, there was then, in the hands
of its agents, the very considerable sum of FIF
TEEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, unaccounted for?
The public documents prove this to have been the case.
Is it not a cry in g evil! But this is not all. The
people have lost by the Land Office alone, Eight
hundrrd and twenty-five thousand, six hundred
and seventy eight dollars and twenty-eight cents.
In view to all this, is there any wonder that the people
should be told that its Government is bankrupt whilst its
agents are wantonly rioting in the use of their money j
Is there any wonder that the people are severely taxed,
the merchants ruined, and an alarming crisis created
every two or three years, in the monied operations of the
country 1 Is there no remedy ? Must the people submit!
We answer, No!! They are even now preparing to rise
in their might and rebuke their rulers. Modern De
mocracy will be stifled in its growth, and tiie indigna
tion of a virtuous people, aroused as it is into action, can
and will again restore the Government to its original pu
rity. Wn shall pursue tins subject occasionally. At
present, our limits to do not permit us to say more.
SAVANNAH GEORGIAN &, THE PRESIDENCY.
This paper is exceedingly aunoyod at the position
which certain “Georgia newspapers” assume, in refer
ence to the Presidency, and quite iruligiutntly rebukes the
Journal, for having placed, “without authority,” the
name of George M. Troup before the ptople, as a
candidate, in opposition to Martin Van Buren and Henry
Clay. After some vain efforts to be witty, the Editor
says : “ The Georgia Journal does not feel indignant, as
it should, at this impertinent threat to burlesque tho re
vered name which it has placed, without authority, in
its columns, for the high office of President of tho United
States.” When the Journal holds itself accountable
to the Savannah Georgian, for its action upon this or any
other political topic, it will then be time enough to reply
to the charge of 44 want of authority,” on our part, in
nominating a candidate for any public office. At present,
however, wc feel disposed only to observe, that the au
thority by which we use the name of George M. Trout,
is of a character quite different from that which regu
lates the movements of our adversaries on similar occa
sions. We have not nominated Governor Troup be
cause he seeks the vjjicc. This would be acting upon a
principle foreign to our creed. We hare nominated him,
because he is not only every way qualified to fill the
important station, but because he is tho opposite of the po.
lilical demagogue whose mime is at the head if the “Savan
nah Georgian.” To seek after, and intrigue with Edi
tors of ncwspajiers for office*, arc distinguishing traits in
the characters of those modern Democrats, who, like*
Mr. Van Buren, would never be elevated, without the
use of means which their own personal popularity and
limited talents could never supply. George M. Troup
is above all this. The breath of suspicion sullies nut his
name. We nominate him because we wish to see him
elevatvd’to the highest station in the country, and be
cause wo are alike opposed to the election of cither ot
lie two prominent candidates for the Presidency. We
nominate him, because we believe the people of Gcor.
gia will sustain t lie nomination. In preference to Mar
tin Van Buren and . Henry (’lav, there is no doubt upon
the subject, notwithstanding the bold assert ionn of u Vail
Buren press, whether it be located'ui Savannah, tiie Scat
or Government, or in the mountains. In conclusion, we
would say to the Georgian, that “our authority” tor
making the nomination is satisfactory to ourselves—that
we are the better pleased wit h it since reading their
witty article headed “ Siamese Twins”—and that when
ever we are prepared 44 to take a lesson,” our srhool.

tor of tliat pajsT, and be less ol a wit than tho “hislo-
grapher extraordinary” of the Isouiavillc Journal.

LATE COTTON CIKLTLAIL
We publish below the proceeding* of the citizens of
Macon, iu reference to the Cotton Circular which will be
touud hi another column. That measures may be pr»*-
posed, by which Cotton Growers can lie protected from
combinations ot Spinners with the Bank of England, is
highly probable, and the gnve consideration of what can
hr dmu, demands st least thc.r attention in the proposed
Convention. Wo expect to notice thin subject hereaf
ter. In the meantime, we would advise our readers to
give thr Circular a careful perusal.
A a large and a very respectable meeting of the citi
zens of the city of Macon, called to take into considera
tion the annexed Circular addressed to the Cotton Plant
ers, Merchants, Factors, and Presidents and Directors of
the several Banks of the Southern States. Isaac G.
Seymour, Mayor of the City, was railed to the Chair,[
and Washington Poe appointed Secretary.
The Chairman, after stating the object of the meet
ing. proceeded to read tin? said Circular—after which the
following resolutions were off-red by Absalom II. Chap-1
pell, Esq., and seconded by Mr. Jerry Cowles—and una
nimously adopted by the meeting:
Resolved, As the opinion of this meeting, that cotton,
the great staple of the Southern and South-western part
of the Union, having become, in a very eminent degree,
the controlling commodity of the commercial world, and
the influence which it exercises over the agricultural anil
commercial prosjrority of our own country, and espe
cially of the cotton growing region of it, being of the
most absolute and paramount character. Therefore it
peculiarly behooves tho citizens of the Southern and
South-western States, earnestly to deliberate whether
any, and what system can be applied to the cotton trade,
that shall impart to it greater steadiness aud certainty,
and secure to the commodify, with at least some ap
proach to uniformity, what may be properly called its due
and natural price—that is to say, a price based on tin*
proportion of the annual supply, to the annual demand
of consumption—thereby protecting it as far as possible
from those violent, ruinous and incalculable fluctuations
which are of such frequent occurrence, and which are in
numerous instances, the direct offspring ol artificial caus
es and combinations.
Resolved further. That this meeting concur in the
views set forth in the circular which has been read in the
meeting from the Chair, and that we believe the mea
sures therein recommended, are sanative in their charac
ter, and if carried out as contemplated, will be condu
cive to the interests of the cotton growing States, ami
therefore should commend themselves to the considera
tion of every citizen of the South, w hatever may be his
calling or profession.
Resolved, That fully appreciating the compliment be
stowed upon our city, in selecting it as the place of meet
ing for the proposed Convention, vve do most cordially
and earnestly solicit our fellow citizens of the South
ern and South-western States, and the Territory of
Florida, to meet us at this place on the fourth Tues
day in October next, to deliberate on the important
matters disclosed in the before mentioned Circular.
Resolved, That a Committee, to be rotiqioscd of twen
ty-one, be appointed by the Chair, to effect the object em
braced in the last resolution, aud that said committee
have full power to adopt such measures as to them may
seem proper to obtain n full meeting of all interested in
the subject set forth in this Circular.
Whereupon the Chair appointed the following gentle
men that (’ommittec.

mittee.
On motion of Henry G. Lamar, Esq., it was Resolved,
That the Editors of Newspapers in this, and all the
States interested in the subject, be requested to publish
the said Circular and Resolutions.

pleasant intelligence that the Cherokee Indians have
embodied near the Saline, in Nacogdoches country, and
are determined to make war upon any troops, who may
attempt, in accordance with the orders of the Secretary
of War, to build a Fort at that, place. A pressing call
is made upon our citizens, by Major Watters, for imme
diate aid t«> carry into effect this order, in which attempt,
a fight with those Indians is inevitable. We trust that
the patriotic red-lander will respond to this call, with that
characteristic promptness which has ever marked their

MR. VAN BUREN LEAVING NEW YORK.
New*-York, July 9.
The news market continues barren, exceedingly bar
ren. Wall street, Pearl, Fine, Cedar, South, and Whi
ter streets, where goon the great operations of commerce,
are exceedingly dull.
The emigrants are flocking in ujam us in regiments.
Seven hundred arrived vesteruay. The weather is hot,
and the sudden changeVroni the cool air of the ocean
to the hot impure air of the city, is not favorable to

The President left us at 1 o’clock. He is to go to Al

river on his route. Preparations ore made for him all
along, and tho chart of his route is fully laid out. Of

veratums ot the Whigs, that the Nub-Treasury speech

yet the signs attending the departure were a signal

the great thoroughly* ot Broadway, mustered but few,
very few in number, and the efforts to cheer were such

CIRCITLA It
PbLLiw Uitofnh: Interested like yourselves, in
the cullvation and disposal of th« % great staple of Amer-
ican ajriciilttire and commerce, we have accidentally
met in Jus city, in the inid.-t ot a crisis w hich disclose*,
•oino stikiiigly momentous features in the history of this
inost iii|Kwiunt branch of the trade of oureountiy.
WIon th** (Vton Crop ot the United State* was a
mere tern m its trade, and did not reach a production
t'VccHing five hundred thousand hales, it was perhaps
Mtetr consider it as one among many articles ol barter
and exthngr, which, left entirely to the fortuitous nr-
cuisstaices of commerce, would find its level under the
iutluena* of the ordinary laws of trade, without the tie-
reseity of resorting to any means of precautionary pro
tection.
Times, however, have changed. Cotton has passed
from the condition* if a mere article of commerce, to the
performance «>f tho mighty function of being in a great
degree th** regulator ol the exchanges, aud the standard
of value of our country. If the nature of this material
fir bids its entering into our circulation, it is scarcely less
tie basis of our currency, than the precious metals; for
tho fluctuations in its price are felt with a sensibility
equally as acute and searching,as any of those variations
x hi ch belong to the demand and supply ot these sensi
tive anil mysterious tokens of national value.
Th** production of this staple, has now become so im-
hum iso, that it behooves those who itroduce it hv a large
iiiv* *stnicnt of capital at a high rate of incidental cost,
aud in s climate perilous to human health, to consider
well, whether there are not some material circumstan
ces in reference to the mode iu which this product of
the ir labor is shipped from this country, and is brought
to market at tin* point of its final sale and consiimp-
tio.i, which demand the application of a prompt and * f-
fec ivc remedy. In one word, is not tho important faci
disc losed, that such is th** unwieldy Amount of this groat
£ta| le ot Southern industry, that it cannot be sent for
ward*. and disused of at fair remunerating prices, through
the ordinary medium of the mercantile establishments of
this country and in Europe, without the direct coopera
tion of our hanking institutions! If we have become sa
tisfied of this fact, ought we not to organize a system,
win ch shall give perfect security to this great interest
in the commerce and finances of our country ! The un
wise and ruinous system of sending the crop forward to
houses of circumscribed means, on the other side of the
water, who are incapable of holding their consignment*
an hour beyond the maturity of the bills drawn against
such shipments, subjects iu fact, nearly the whole amount
of American interests to foreign combination, which
might act, not only with entire concert, but with a per
fect knowledge ol the period, when from the maturity ot
the acceptances in question, property to a stupendous
amount belonging to this country, may bo ready for sa
crifice.
The great and vital change w hich must he opr rated,
is to sustain American interests, l>v American credit.
To realize at home, the resources necessary for the pro
tection of our pro|K»rty abroad, w ithout the necessity of
large and inconvenient drafts on the capital aud means
of our great customer. In other words, the commercial
reform we desire, is to send our great staple to market,
without the period being determined by the date of a
Bill of E xcliange, when it is to be brought forward for
absolute and unnccesssary sacrifice. We believe that
the steadiness in price, which would result from a port ion,
at least, of the Cotton crop being exempt from the disas-
trous fluctuations arising from compulsory sales, would
in tho end, be scarcely less valuable to the spinner and
consumer in England, than to the grower and shipper
here. A fact, w hich we think demonstrable from the
following postulates, which we consider altogether self-
• evident:
1. The natural price of Cotton is the effect of the fair
. and natural influence of supply aud demand.
2. The price cannot he steady, and the article cannot
lie current, so as to admit of safe calculations on the part
of the planters, the manufacturer and the merchant, un
less the price he natural. It is consequently the inter
est of those three classes, that the article should be pro
tected, on the one hand from any great and undue spe
culative action, which might inflate prices above the na
tural rate—and on the other, from any derangement in
the money market, or any other accidental cause, whicli
might depress it below that rate. The effect of great
and undue speculat ion being to derange the money mar
ket, and to produce reaction, with an uudue depression
of prices.
3. The state of tho currency mainly depends on the
means which the country possesses, to pay its foreign
debt, by shipments of its produce. To the extent its
produce or manufacture falls short of that object, exports
of specie may bo induced, tho effect of which must be a
reduction of the circulation, with depreciation of proper
ty and general distress.
4. Cotton, in this country, being by far the most im
portant produce, and affording th** great means of pay
ing its foreign debt, it is the interest of the community,
and jvartic.ularly of the numied institutions, that the price
of it in England, (the great, market,) should bo steady,
and that the article should be of current sale, so as to be
the means of large and effective remittance. It follows,
tliat the interest ol the banking institutions here, are the
same as those of the three classes first mentioned, name
ly, that the price should be natural, that it may be stea-
Jy, and of easy realization.
f». The interest of the British Government, of the
Bank of England, and of the hanks of that country in
rcsjiect to this article, are the same as the interests ol
the banks here. The importation there being immense,
and the employment of si most numerous body of the la
boring clauses, depending on the steadiness of prices.
When they are not steady—the foreign demand for man
ufactured cotton is reduced greatly, tho operatives are
thrown out of employment, anil the great means of set
tling the balance of trade, without the exportation of
the precious metals are withdrawn. Manufactured cot
tons affording by far, the most important branch of their
expert trade.
(1. Consequently, any arrangemcnt’that could be formed,
by which the article would be protected from the effects
of tu-due speculation, and from depression in the money
market, and by which steadiness «»l price, with currency
of side, would be promoted—would save some of the
greatest aud best interests hi both countries*
7. It is therefore proposed to form a system by which,
with the commencement of the new crop, advances on
Cotton shall he made u illi the capital or credit of Banks
here, thereby relieving the consignee in Europe from
all care or consideration, except the advantageous sale
of his stock, which would promote all these interests,
aud afford general satisfaction on both sides of the water,
provided it were not made the means directly or indi
rectly, of undue speculation or monopoly.
1 laving thus indicated the principles on vv hirli the pro
posed system must find its justification and basis, we
will now as succinctly as possible, detail the means of
carrying it into effect.
We are far from imputing any premeditated hostility
of the Bank of England to American interests; on the
contrarv, it is one ol the benevolent influences of com
mercial intercourse, to promote peace aud good will
among nations and men. Hence this great engine *»l
the commercial grandeur and opulence ol Great Britain,
acting under an enlightened instinct, must rather desire
that it* In st customer should at all times lx* in a condi
tion to meet her engagements with entire punctuality
and success.
But there arc cnoclis in tin? commerce of England,
whether from insufficient liarvests a languid demand for
her manufactures, or political combinations, when the
bank may, from an urgent jiolicy, limit her discount*,
and increase her rate ot interest. This event can never
occur, without its liaving a blighting influence on any
surplus ot our great staple, winch might be unsold in
England. Surely, if the Bank ot England can exercise
(unavoidably,) an influence thus prejudicial, we may re
sort to our own American banks, as a means of security
and protection, without the invidious clamor of combina
tion and monopoly. It is tune that tin* absurd and sense
less cry on the subject of bank * making advances on
Cotton, should be underxt*s>d, and finally put down.
Tlu* truth is, that by the mere purchase of the foreign ex
changes of the country, they advance on nearly every
hale ot Cotton subject to foreign export, and this w ith
out the security of the hill of tailing and policy of im-u-
ranee, on tlr* mere persona! resiKHisibility of the draw
ers aud indorsers of the hill, lienee these losses are
most comprehensive and disastrous after every commer
cial crisis and revulsion.
Now we pro[Misc* giv ing to the banks iu all cases, tin*
higher protection of these securities, and thtt early next
autumn, otic or more banks in each of the great com
mercial Cotton markets of tiie South, * hould commence
making advance s on the crop,according to a scab* to he
graduated by what wJI lx* n sate calculation ol it* pn>-

h"rea(tfr contemplated, may sug-***t; not»**, which may
b" unde to answer both the purjsises ol currency and
exchange, the details of which we refer to that body.
By tins arrangement however, w e feel satisfied U»«? cre
dits can be so distributed, that from the day of the ship
ment of our cotton, it may probably be held at least six
month** in Europe, without the foreign ronidgnee being
under an advance of one farthing, and wo thuik it quite
easy to confer *»ti the houses, to which th** shipments are
confided, sufficient strength, to enable Jliein to bold over
for even a longer period, should safe remunerating prices
not 1m• obtained on the maturity of the lulls.
With the view of securing tins strength, it is indis
pensably necessary, that th** consignments should not be
too much diffused, but confined to a limited number of
houses in Liverpool and Havre, who, acting as the
agents of all those who will com*' into this conservative
system, will feel a common interest, and w*ill naturally
aid and assist each other under all and every contingency.
This Fellow Citizens, is but the brief outline of a great
scheme, for the protection of our Commerce, Finance,
and Exchanges, the d«.*lails of which, must be left for
profound deliberation, and concerted action. To ac
complish this object, vve hereby invite the planters, fac
tors aud cotton merchants of each district or county hi
the Southern States, and Territory of Florida, together
with th** Banks, in each of the said States and Territory,
to pend Delegates to meet us in Convention at Macon,
Geo., on the Fourth Tuesday of October next, which
will boon the 22n*l day ot that month, that vve may care
fully consider the important matters (Unclosed iu this
Circular.
W e invite a candid examination of this whole scheme,
for the protection, not alone of southern interests, but for
the security of tho commerce of the whole country.
Let it at least bo treated by patient investiga
tion, and enlightened research; if hy this plan one
third of the entire cotton crop of the country can be pla
ced beyond the possibility of sacrifice, it will give secur
ity to the residue, not hy entrenching it behind the guards
of a speculative momqxdv, hut hy holding it in that state
ot security, whioh the just relations of supply and de
mand will always in the long run, es'ahl shand sustain
in the trade of a great and civilized country.
That no time may lost, we beg leave to apprise you
that an agent, liaving our confidence, will leave this
shortly lor Europe, clothed with ample instructions, to
make such preliminary arrangements with the houses in
Ltvcr|>ool and Havre, which may, by the sanction of the
Convention, have the proposed consignments.
We are aware of th*.* very potent opposition, which a
plan looking even to self-defence, must invite both at
home and abroad, as it runs counter to a variety of in
terests, too powerful and too pusc*'pticle of combination,
not to be aroused into active, and perhaps inexorable
hostility. Our apology is not to be found in the plea,
that we have aright to hold our own property by the
means of the credit of our own country, then we fear
lessly say, ur mean at least to attempt it, in despite of au
opposition however eager and implacable.
We have seen in the face of a crop of l,3. r H),000 Bales,
an effort made, and very nearly resulting in success, to
coerce the acceptance * if the same prices, which were
incident to one of 1,*"00,000 bales. We ought not to
rest our security on tin* adverse omens of the crop which
is now grovvfhg under th** will ami dispensation of Prov
idence, which has already suffered in many quarters from
an intense drought, and mothers from tin* ravages of the
insects so destructive to its growth and maturity. Wc
should l«i*»k beyond the era of the short supply of the last
year, and an apprehended deficit during the coming son-
sou. The lessons of economical wisdom bolong to all
seasons, aud all times, and there is a salutary truth in
the homely aphorism,, that those who do not take* care
of themselves, are not likely to be* taken care of by others.
We therefore submit this call ami invitation to you, with
the carncs hope, that you will be prepared to co-operate
with us in a measure; hi which we believe the highest
interests of our common country are involved.
We remain, very Respectfully,
Your ob’t. aerv’ta.

Our Rail Road—Not Given ur.—Messrs. Editors:
—You will allow me to request the use of your col
umns, for the purpose of correcting certain rejsirls, most
industriously circulated, which have created some anxie
ty on the part of many stockholders in the Louisville,
Cincinnati aud Charleston Kail Road Company. A pub
lication in the Louisville Journal asserts, “on the an-
•Jhority of a respectable gentleman recently from South
Carolina,” that “all idea of pushing the Rail Road fur
ther than Columbia, the capital ol South Carolina, had
hern given up,” and tho President of the Rail Road Bank
is referred teas having “so stated.” Iu consequence of
tins publication, and tin? reports above alluded to, taken
iu connection w ith several recent publications in the
Charleston papers, from correspond* nts (believed gene
rally not to be stockholders) opposed to the extension of
the Road,—I have roce.vod letters Iroin North Carolina,
Tennessee aud Kentucky, asking for information *»n this
subject. To afibrd til*? information in the only way
tliat could reach all those who have an interest in
the matter, is tho object of the present communica
tion.
I am, in the first place, authorized by the President of
tho Rail Road Bank to say, tliat in no communication
ever made by him, did he intend to convey tho impres
sion “that all idea of extruding the Road above Colum
bia had been given up.”
No such determination lias been made by the Compa
ny, and Col. Blanding himself, so far from entertaining
the opinion w liich might he inferred from the remark attri
buted to him, most earnestly d*-sires tone** the Road car
ried as far Westward as |sissible, and thinks that South
Carolina even, if left alone, should not jieriiut it to stop
short of the Mountains.
Though some difference of opinion may exist among
individual stockholders on this subject, the Com/xhiy has
certainly taken no step, indicating any cliangoof views.
No om* is authorized to speak for tiie stockholders, whose
determinations can only Ik* made known at the annual
meeting, which will take place at Asheville, on the 3*1
Monday in September next, when it is hoped and cxjxrt*
ed, that the stock field iu all the States, will be fully
represented.
The Departure of the President.'—The Presi
dent, at 1 o'clock, lett his head Quarters at Washington
Hotel, t Ibeervingfourteen men *mhorseback, whom w*»
counted, passing from Tammany Hull, hy our office, and
recognising some Custom House officers smoking ci
gars on their horses, we followed the cavalcade to the
President's Quarters. The cavalcade then increased to
just twenty-one (arsons on horse,—and there were less
than twenty carnages, except such as are always passing
in Broadway at that hour,—that intended to belong to
the procession. It is a high estimate to say 300 persons
were hi, or about tho Hotel. All things being ready,
Mr. Van Buren went into bis Barouche, drawn by
tour gr* y horses, accompanied by tho Mayor, Mr. Ya-
rian.
While tho President was seating himself, some jmt-
hoii in the second story waved Ins hat, and cried out
“ three cheers,” to which there was not the least response.
Justus the carnage was moving off', Mr. Van Buren part
ly rose, and took oil* his fiat and bowed, when the people
raised a very respectable cheer, but the second was flint,
and the third, of less than a dozen voices. The order of
Procession was as follows :—
TWENTY-ONE HORSEMEN,
One horse carriage,
