NORTHEASTERN BOUNDARY. We copy from a Maine and New Btunswick paper, the (bUewing articles in reference to the North Eastern Boundary. The unsettled condi tion of that question, Invests every thing which comes from that quarter with interest. From Iks Bangor ( Maine) HMg. We learn from die Woodstock Times, that the eleventh regiment will tnhe up their quarters for the winter at Lake Tnuiisquatn. The same paper adds, that “on express passed trough this place last Monday, on his ivny . from Montreal to Frcdericdou, with despatches from the Govern- nor General to Sir John Harvey. We hove notleameddienatureofthodcspatcb. Tho mes senger arrived hereyesterdayon his return, He brought intelligence diat the left wing of the 3Sdi regiment would proceed to Grand Falls. We consider diese movements as very judicious, at their object, no doubt, ie to keep the communica tion open between die provinces. It will not he forgotten that threats have been frequently made of stopping the meil thiswin- ter.es wolt as the fact that Gov. Fairfield atands pledged to take possession ofthe whole disputed leiiiiury during the present season. - Under these circumstances we consider these • movements ex ceedingly well-timed, as in the event of an attempt to carry dieae threats into execution, wo should not bo taken by surprise as we were'lnst win- ter. Gov. Fairfield's semi-official paper in this city has stated that, “if the two nations do not ran tho lino as soon as it may be done, and in case the two countriee are not involved in war, it wilT bo incumbent upon Maine to prepare for taking S oasession of the lend north or the St. John liter. This would atop tho mail and ent oil" tho Communication between the British Pro vinces.” This declaration was put forth last March, and as neither ofthe. contingencies men ibnetl have happened, wc may suppose that die New Bruiuwickers have good cause for making pre paration to r*mnl the forces of Mains. They are gone suckers, unless some decisive movements ore soon made towards a settlement. "ZW.F'Z SAVANNAH! WEDNESDAY EVENING. DKfi. 11, THEATRE.

December 6. The IIouso of Representatives to-day, spent much time this forenoon in discussing the bill to givo the right to increase her issues to tho Central Bank, Sue. Thc.consiitutionaVity of that Institu tion was individually discussed, and seems to bo quite a grave ouo, aud fttmi uu intimation of opin ion recently given from the Bench ofthe Gth Cir cuit Court of tho United States, holden in this city, will probaby at some future day be judicial ly investigated, and is of some doubt. The bill was laid on the table for the prescut. The Senate devoted tho day to the discussion of Mr. Gordon’s bill, which was mentioned in my notice of yesterday’s proceedings. ,*Much was urged in relation to tho propriety of the State takiug stocks in any Roil Road, or lending her credit, Ac., aud also of the liberality of the State in time* past to Savannah—more feeling was dis played than it is at all agreeable to witness, and plainly indicates that oven in our highest dolibera? t;ve assemblies, interest is not powerless. Tho bill hag this evening passed the Senate iu the form pow setit to you. 03* The National Intelligencer of the 7th ihst. says—“ Five days have passed of the Session of Congress, and the House of Representatives is not yet organized for the transaction of business.

RAIL ROAD ACCIDENT. ’ 'Wo regret to learn (says the Aiigusta Chronicle $f Sentinel ofthe 9th inst) that an accident occur red on tho Georgia Rail Road, about forty-five miles from this city, on Friday last, which had well nigh proven to have been of a serions char, acter. Two freight trains going up, uielunother coming down; the engineer of the foremost train going up, on perceiving the train coming doivn, stopped Ills locomotive ond returned towards the last station, pinning backwards, Vhen ho met the other train which was proceeding up, and a con cussion, took place between the locomotive of that train and the hindmost cars of hi* train. The locomotive was slightly, and five cars seriously damaged. No body hurt or injured in any way. The cars which were injured were going up emp ty for the purpose of bringing down cotton. From the St. Johns (N. B.) Chronicle. ■ A strong solicitude appears to be felt abont the further'proceedings which ar® u>****>• ?*• Commissioners. \Ve learn that, tho party from the Metis River ar rived in town on Saturday evening, and therefore suppose'every thing connected with the explora tion closed, at least for the season. We perceive that some ofthe Mama papers represent the Commissioners as having merely crossed theDis- puted Territory, and gone to Quebec, without visiting their famous North West Angle. These sneers appear to us very injudicious, os they cer tainly arc premature. Our editora! brethren in Maine must have had but indifferent means of knowing what Her Majesty’s Commissioners were doing. We think it might have occurred to them that ill-tempered paragraphs drawn up'with out information, can mislead tho public but for a short time, and then serve only to injure their au thors and the cause they espouse. We have nev er ventured any of our own conjectures about the proceedings of the Commissioners, being in fact without any authentic information respecting them. In August last, we stated that we had heard their pluns tended “to elucidate facts inter esting to both countries,'’’ and such as might facil itate the friendly settlement of our boundary with the United States. Such^appears to have been t ie general understanding about this mission, aud upon these grounds we have always thought the labors ofthe Commissioners were entitled to the respect and good wishes of our. neighborshs well as o:i:a fiver. To judge from what we have heard of tin se labors, they deserve the approbation of all interested j u preserving peace and good neigh borhood betweeu the two countries. In the short apace of three months since the arrivnl dr Lieut. Col. Mudse and Mr. Featherstonlmugh in this Province they, wiih well organized and efficient parties, have examined the surface ofthe country, from tho western termination ofthe Bay of Chal- our to tho western sources ofthe Penobscot qud Chaudiere; the whole of the Allegash country, from its source to its junction with the St. John's; the line of the lloostook from its extreme sources to its month; and that ofthe St. John’s riverfrom i* sources in tho Highlands which divide it from the waters of the Penobscot, along its whole course to the sea. To this laborious investigation they have added a critical examination of the line cl timed by Maine os the true boundury in the Trpaty of 1783, from tho Etchemia River to the Metis lakes, this last' portion of the work being effected under circumstances of great difficulty, and attended with personal sufferings. The liue ofcountry comprehended in thin description, ex tends to about seven hundred miles, along the whole Of which Barometrical admeasurements have, we understand, been carefully taken. The great number of interesting facts thus, for the first time collected, must, we think, h.ivc ap important influence bn tho final decision of a* question that many able men have in vain ‘attempted to settle for near sixty years. / Wo do not pretend even to gues at the natuj-c of the results the Commissioners will bo prepar ed to lay before Her Majesty Government. The want of accurate information Respecting thfr physical geography of the unsettled country we have spoken of has been the principal cause of the failure of every attempt to * establish our boundary.—This want, we hope uud believe, will now bo supplied. We may reasonably suppose that our M ctropolitnn Government will soon be in possession ofsiicti information us will’ enable them to understand clearly the nature of oitr own rights, as well as that of the claims of our neighbours. That regardfor justico and the u icicd character of Treaties which lias always distinguished Groat Britain will, we have no doubt, constitute the rule of her action on this mo- cicntou oecdwloij.

Mr. Jenkins almost out-did himself in his able and determined opposition to Ibis humiliating measure. Words arc almost inadequate to convey a just conception ofthe feelings, with which this talented Represen tative was regarded. It must suffice to remark, that his effort was worthy his own distinguished reputation, v an<l the patriotic cause in which he strove. Mr. Chappell.also ftirnished the House, in reply to Col.

Under our commercial head, will bo. found tho commercial and monetary intelligence she brings, which b, as. will be perceived, of a most grain ing character. Correspondence ofthe Courier Sf Enquirer. London, November 15,'1839. The steam ship Liverpool—which arrived in England after struggling in the ^greatest style through very stormy seta, and against on almost uninterrupted succession of contrary winds— departs ngaiu to-morrow bn her voyage tp New York. The arrival of this vessel must be sup posed to be expected ip the United States with all that anxietywhich cannot but exist where the community iH concerned for the results ofthe ex traordinary intelligence which this vessel convey ed to England—and an account of the con sequences of which tho Liverpool b ulinost cer tain to be again the first 'to carry buck to the United States. Though tho Liverpool steam-ship was certain ly expected with some feelings* of apprehension —yet there was no party or person who was not filled with astonishment at the precipitation of such events ns the suspension of cash payments by the United States. The long catalogue of fires, and other misfortunes, which came by the same vessel, at any other time would have excit ed fnnch interest and sympathy ih this country; but there is too large a portion of tho population of England dependent upon the American trade, that the principal subject of attention should not be supposed to be the recent wide-spread crash amongst the Banks of the United States. The effect of tins intelligence fins been worse in England than was probably anticipated by the American mercantile community, or by the direc tion ofthe Bank 6f the U. States. Tho difficul ties ju which the London agency bad been invol ved for iflfmo time past, wore considered to bo fully overcome by tho very skilful urrangomcub winch luid boon mudo in London, find which wore in a Author prosperous train in iha city of Amsterdam, aud therefore no person could have anticipated that oven before tho arrival of the Liverpool stoam ship, payment should have been suspended by tho Bank ofthe United States. It has been noticed that tho Bank did noton this occasion, ns in tho year 1836, yield only after seeing so many other eatablbhmenta had given way—ahtl moreover, tho subsequent publication in the London journals of the state oftho os- sots and liabilities of the institution, has been viewed by practical hankers oa exhibiting much mismanagement, particularly in. tho stoking so large t\ part oftho resources in dead •rfcurUiea— this bningm violation of tlmt first rule in all bank ing that the assets should be always preserved within your reach. Tohave been iit possosaion of no more than a single million of dollars in specie, is also looked upon as a truly improper exhibition ofthe available resources of tho Bank of tho Unt ied States. .. . , , Tho offect of this intelligence bns been that the shares oftho Bank havo Fallen IVotft £19 10s. or £20 to £10 5s. which has been .the quotation tor tho last three days k nml oontinuos to the 'latest hour of this afternoon.

Amongst tho hankers and capitoU.ts of London Ihcro is daily utoro confidence in tho future value oftho shares oftho Bank, for it is believed that the accounts taken out by tiio Great Western oftho successful negocinlion of Mr. Jattdonfor tho loan of £800,000 will so tranquilliao the American markets that on' tho return of this vessol, many well informed persons anticipate en oarly dissipa tion of tho present gloom.. As a measuro of prudence in future time*—it may bo worthy of remarking, upon tlio small amount oftho “ rest"—which appears in Uto pub lished accounts ofthe assols of tlio Dank oftho United States. This is attributed to a payment in otto large sunt, and of tho bonds to tlio State of Pennsylvania, for tlio ro-charlering ofthe Bank) but more properly, the smallitess ofthis accumu lation may bo attributed to tlio liectllossly large dividends which have been paid on the atock of tho Bank. Tho reduction 7 nor. cent.' of the di vidends ontho stock ofthe Bank ofl-nglniid— might bo very advantageously imitated by the Uauk of the United Stales, and thia would not weaken hut strengthen tho credit ofthe institution —since tho surplus capital is always tho property oftho shorohoidore; who with a diminished pre sent dividend are stilt partaking of Ike benefits which abundance of resources must olways'atTord in the corresponding value of tho shares of a hank. Whilst, then, there ore parties who entortn'n no doubt oftho ultimate return of a more eatufue- tory condition of Uto affairs.of tho Bank ofthe U. States, and ofthe general American trade—it is yet unfortunately too true that the sudden depre ciation in the value of the stock of the Bank has uiostseriously injured great numbers oflhiuilics, who, in all-parts of the kingdom, arc the miscella neous holders ofthe shares—and that in tho man ufacturing districti of Lancashire and Yorkshire, tlio late intelligence from the United States has most extensively uggravuted tho already too gloomy prospects of the ensuing winter months. - Let us hope, however, that, Ipr tho honor of tlio republic, this crash in tho monetary system Of the country is the Inst which shall occur.. The disadvantages with which alt eounneicu is oppress ed, .through tlio mistaken policy of a gold circula tion, are yet'not sufficient us a justification of the rapid recurrence of thoso snspnnaioni of payment by tho great mass or tho Banks of tho United States. The general money market nt London was not nficctqd materially, or for more than tlirca days af ter die arrival of tlio iutelligeuoe by tlio Liverpool steamship.. It is now beginning to ho tlio opin ion that monetary elfuirs may he expected to prove brighter than for tome time past. Tho foreign exchanges have been rather more fjvnipblo-tor the last two days, and very considerable additions are said to havo recently beet! made to the amount of gold in tho possession of tito Bank of England Tins, however, must be considered as not a symp tom ofany revival of the general commerce ofthe conutry; for though Uie absolute and pressing fears of a suspension of cash payments by the Bank of England may have been diminished with in tho last few days, yet the addition of gold has Qplyjia.n-.htainud by a continuation of tin. ms.i ' violent contraction of the circulation, with ail Its distressing influence upon general trade. It is to be observed, ulso. that the cessation of the drain Upon the vaults of tlio Bank, may lie attributed to die temporary suspension of tho importations of foreign wheat—for the duty upon wheat lias risen to 18s. 8d. per auarter; bitt this being c msed en tirely by.the had quality, and consequent low pri ces of tlio English wheat of the present season,will cease to havo tho samo operation, in tho courso of a few weeks, or months, when, either tho wheat will bo sufficiontly improved in quality, to be sale able nt the high prices Which are natural at a time wheta the rciu deficiency is so great, or, otherwise will havo boon given to-the cattle, or consumed in the breweries and distileries; and Uto prices of tho remaining stock of sound wheat wili conse quently cause the averages to rise, aud the duty to fall to the minimum rate.. A reuewul oftho im portation of groin, and exportation of gold, would then immediately take place; and then recur Uto difficulty of the Bank of England, and on aggrava- Uon of all the troubles which Uie unfortunate fail ure oftho harvest must compel the kingdom to encounter, for a very long period to come.

I will not say that it produced no sensation, but it certainly produced none comparatively with tlie importance oftho enuouncemont.
