1 SATURDA Y MORNING, JAN. 10, 1829.
Accident — A portion of the wall of the Wash
ington Hail, which was some time since destroy
ed by fire, was yesterday thrown down by the
wind, while several workmen were employed in
re-building it.. Wp regret to add, that Joseph R.
Thompson, a worthy mechanic, was severely in
jured.
Executive Patronage. —We had occasion some
time since, to notice this subject incidentally—
y\ e again recur to it, because we seriously believe
that \he privilege of Executive patronage, when
uncontroled by Legislative power, is fraught with
no inconsiderable evil to the well being o four po
litical institutions.
The pay *ol the officers of the Penitentiary, we
cannot state with certainty—but it amounts to se
veral thousand dollars per ahnum—that of an Ad
jutant Genera! is to be the same as received by an
officer of similar rank in the service of the Uni
ted States: which, including forage, rations, &c. |
may be estimated at between 150 and S2OO per
month. These appointments have been, very in
judiciously, vested in the Governor. In saying
so, we do not intend to impugn the political inte
gfh.y of Mr. Forsyth—all we mean is, that it is a
trust which ought not to be reposed in the hands
of any one man. The weight of patronage is too
great, and the power it confers can be abused.—
We are sufficiently liable to err, without having
the glittering temptation of patronage thrown in
our wav—it can ‘‘buy golden opinions” from eve
ry one —and it should be a primary object in the
laws, to control even a liability to abuse it by ef
fectual checks.
We have been pleased with the general tenor of
Mr. Forsyths administration, and feel no hesita
tion in pronouncing it, with some few exceptions,
(and among these we place his sanction to the
Central Bank Bill”) one of the most efficient and
independent since the organization of our State
Government. Indeed, had he not been overcome
by the slavish bestowment of patronage, to which
we have alluded, vve feel well convinced that his
better reason would have triumphed, and by the
exercise of his veto, he would have destroyed that
, bold and shameful speculation on the public trea
sure.
—A
The Central Bank. —We consider the Yazoo
Fraud as a very innocent transaction compared to
this bold scheme of speculation. Only let it be
b considered, that the whole treasury of the state,
all the available funds of our government, consist
ing of specie, notes, bonds and judgements, are
I placed in the hands of three men, to be divided out
| among their friends and dependants, without
; check or control!—To be sure, the Directors are
I bound to exhibit the record of their proceedings,
to the Governor and Legislature; but what will
avail the bare record, when the coffers shall have
been emptied.
It is well known that the current expanses of
our government, exceed the annual revenue, by
nearly one half ; and that the deficiency has been
made up by drafts on the fund which has accrued
from the sale of Indian lands. Now when this fund
shall have been dissipated by loans to A, B, C and
D, in different parts of the state, what means shall
we adoptT'for the payment of our Representatives,
our Judges. Executive officers, &c. &c. Must we
resort to double ‘Paxes f Let the honest framers of
this bright scheme answer. Many very honest peo
ple “have approbated the establishment of the
Central Bank, because they believed it weuld re
lieve the embarrassed state of the country, and
that the poor would partake of its advantages.
Now a little reflection will convince any one that
such hopes must be altogether visionary. The
poor man, or the individual in embarrassed cir
cumstances, not being able to obtain credit at the
bank, cannot participate ir. its advantages, what
ever they may be; but the man of property , will
be enabled to obtain ready money—with which he
may speculate on the embarrassments of his dis
tressed neighbors.
This argument is predicated upon the supposition
that the directors will manage the affairs of the
bank faithfully, and not loan out money without
that security which the law contemplates.
The idea therefore of distributing the money
equally among the citizens ot the state, with a
view of equalizing ifs benefits, is altogether illu
sory. Its advantages will be entirely bestowed on
the wealthy, who can do well enough without
them ; and the poor will be at the mercy of that
monied aristocracy, which this bank will build up.
But there is another view in which this estab
lishment ought to be considered. This brink will
prove a dangerous political engine , and those in
dividuals who are entrusted with the manage
j ment of its affairs will wield a power capable of
, controling every important election in the State.

1 Alabama. —During the present season, up to
the 29th ult., 19,027 bales of Cotton had bean re
ceived m the market of Mobile.
The best mode of disposing the 400,000 acres of
land given Alabama for the purposes of Internal
Improvement, seems to perplex the Legislature
of that State. If a whisper from us, could reach
the good people of Alabama in time, we would say
to them—For God sM-ake, do not lottery off your
] arK j s ; do any thing with that. You
cannot do better than by disposing of them in the
same way as the general government doesets na
tional domain. Had the State of Georgia adopt
ed such a plan in the sale of her public lands, the
Chancellor of our Exchequer might flourish his
any Treasurer in the Union—but now,
alas! she has to resort to the ruinous system of a
“Central Bank” to stimulate the indirect debility
es her dilapidated finances.
Dnrid Crocket. —If the anecdotes which are re
lated of this gentleman be true, we think they do
not give much dignity to his character as a legis
lator, or toffiis respectability as a man. Sncli fool
ery and vulgarity slmuM not be tolerated in a po

Asa Woodsman, nurtured in the bosom of our
vast and almost interminable forests, he has been
very inaptly compared with the Leather storking

i between the two characters. Leatherstockirg

converse with Nature, in alttier picturesque, b*ld
and magnificent characteristics. On the contrt

ing points of the untutored brute.
T—
Theatrical. —Last night, the Gamester and Ugh
Life Below Stairs. The Gamester is an highly
wrought and affecting Tragedy—the moral which
it conveys is of the finest caste —but the piece has
been so long before the public, and is so generally
known and admired, that it would be a work of su-1
pererogation to comment upon it. We recur to
it at present, merely for tho purpose of speaking of
, Cooper, and “though last, not least,” of Mrs.
‘ Barnes.
Cooper’s personation of Beverly was a chef
and ouvre —John Buli would have had to heat the
“devil's tatoo” a long time before he cotld find
fault.with it. We saw him in the charactei many
years ago—but, yet, last night he opened i upon
us with new beauties. In this hasty skeUh, we
have only time to observe, that he made a power
ful display of his character in the scene where he
first detects the villainy of Stukely— “Tiut, true
— this looks like management" —was expressed
with a thrilling pathos, and with all the agony of
hopeless despair. Throughout the dyiig scene,
such was the profound attention of the tudience,
that the drop of a pin might have been heard.
in the scene with Stukely, where Mra Beverly
discovers his dishonorable intentions, we could
not imagine a more effective exhibition of the vir
tuous and indignant feelings of an injured and in
sulted wife, than Mrs. Barnes gave us—^-She was
the real life of Lucretia, walking in alUier peer
less chastity. We have only one fault to find with
this accomplished actress. In mere colloquy she
is too emphatic —she loses the natural ease which
belongs to common place dialogue—but this may
be tolerated, because it results from an amiable,
but mistaken desire of pleasing.
We looked in upon the Farce only long enough
to see DeCamp received with‘three times three.’
Commerce of Macon. —By the following estim
ate, says the Macon Telegraph, some idea may be
formed of the importance of Macon, in a commer
cial point of view; and of the long strides this in
fant town is making towards prosperous celebrity:
Amount of cotton received in Macon,
From Ist Sept, to 31st Dec. 1826, 7,358 bales
From Ist Sept, to 31st Dec. 1C27, 10,080 bales
From Ist Sept, to 31 ot Dec. 1828, 26,969 bales
Boston, December 25.
The Infant School Fair. —The articles exhibited
for sale on this occasion did very great credit to
the industry , generosity, and skill of the ladies
concerned in it. Fancy was absolutely perplexed
and the attention wearied by the infinite variety
of odd and pretty inventions. The tables were
arranged on Monday the 22d, and exhibited to
those who chose to pay 25 cents for the sight.—
The sale commenced on Tuesday at 10 o’clock, —
and before 11, the Athanneum Hall was crowded
almost to suffocation, —continued so until nearly
three; and became so again in the afternoon. We
have seldom seen any plan carried on with such
and propriety on the part of
: the managers, or encouraged by more spirited
; generosity from the public.
The sum of money received was $2628 13. We
understand that it is to be divided between the
treasuries of the Bedfort st. and Salem st. schools.
Amid all the discord of this jarring age, it is plea
sant to find one plan of benevolence, in which our
two great opposition parties c*ui cordially and
! cheerfully agree.
The Sex in Virginia. —Governor Griles, in Ills
Message to the 1 * slature on the’2d. instant,
i makesThonorable mention of the fact, “that for
the last four years, but one white woman had
been convicted of a Penitentiary offence within
the Commonwealth of Virginia, and that only two
white women have been confined in the Peniten
tiary for the last two years.”—The free white po
pulation of the State exceeds in number 666,000
sou l s .__How wonderful the fact,” continues the
I Governor, “that only one while woman has been
* convicted of a Penitentiary offence within the last
■ four years!”
The Washington Telegraph of Saturday, men
i tions that Messrs. Gallatin and Preble were still
J in the metropolis “ preparing the argument and
evidence in the case of the difference between the
United States and Great Britain, relative to the
■ North Eastern boundary line, which is to be sub
mitted to the umpirage of the king of the Nether-
I lands.”
It is proposed in Baltimore, to form a Society
for the relief of decayed and impoverished mer
chants, by which thft suffeYings and trials of many
individuals and families of respectability, educa
tion and worth, might be assistetj to rise from pain
ful circumstances, to which the fluctuations in
commercial affairs sometimes expose a portion pf
. the community.
Distressing Calamity. —On the 18th ult~ the
dwelling house of Mr. Nathan Hargis, in Person
county, J[N. C.) was consumed by fire, and Mrs.
Hargis, in attempting to extinguish the lire, per
ished in the flames.
A native sculptor of New Haven, who has ac
quired some reputation in Connecticut, by a Sap
| phb, and an Apollo, is now employed on a groupe
which is expected to surpass all his former produc
tions. The artist’s name is Hezekiah Augur.
A Mrs Turner, a native of Sweden, is now as
tonishing the citizens of Boston, by her talents at
Lithography. She produces most perfect likenes

Coal.—An extensive bed of coal has been dis
covered in the state of New Jersey, not far from
Patterson, which will probably prove a valuable
acquisition. A specimen es it has been brought
to this city, and analyzed by a chemical professor.
We understand the coal was found to he compo
sed of 74 parts carbon, 24 of bitumen, and 2 of
earth—if this is so, it must be the best coal yet
discovered for the purpose of making gas. It is
said tliis coal is situated near the Morris Canal.

It is said in a letter from Paris that much en
couragement is given to the following new inven
tion for heating rooms. “ A piece of qaick lime
dipped flato water, and shut hermetically into a*
box constructed for the purpose, gives almost a
purgatory heat, and prevents-the necessity of fire
during the winter.”
Washington, Dec. 31.
The question of the establishment of a
new Territorial Government at the mouth
of the Oregon or (Columbia) River, now j
seriously occupies the attention of the House
of Representatives.
It is a question of complex character.
First, it is a question of expediency as ;
! regards the effect of such a measure upon j
our political system. It is difficult to de j
termine how far it is expedient to establish j
states,.hereafter to claim admission jnlo this <
Union, at so great a distance from the seat
of government as to make it doubtful whe
j ther they could be adequately represented
iu the councils, or identified with the ge
neral interests of the Union’
Secondly, it is a question of political
! power; whether the Eastern and Middle
and Southern states, shall agree to receive
into the political limits of the Union, other
Western Territories, in addition to those
already existing, and which It is already
necessary to subdivide, to form anew tier
of states, whose influence in the goverjn- \
ment will lessen more and more those of
the old Thirteen States
Thirdly, it is a question of boundary be
tween the U. States, and a foreign Power,
which it appears to us to be of more impor
tance to settle than either of the preceding.
By a serious decision upon the pending
bill, however, it might happen that all three
of these question w’ould be determined. It
is not surprising, therefore, that it invites
grave debate.— National Intelligencer .
Washington, Dec. 31.
In the senate, yesterday, the bill making
appropriations for the service of the govern
ment, iu the first quarter of the year, 1829,
was passed. Mr. Foot presented a memo
rial from, sundry inhabitants of Worthing
ton, in the state of Connecticut, praying that
< the transportation of the mail on the Sab
bath may be discontinued. The memorial
was referred to the committee on the Post
Office and Post The bill allowing
an additional drawback on imported sug r
refilled in this country, and exported there
from, was taken up and discussed lor abou
, two hours
The of Representatives, after dis
posiugof the various resolutions which were
submitted, resumed, in committee of the
whole on the state of the Union, the consi
deration of the bill to authorize the occupa
tion of the Oregon territory Mr. Mitchcl
spoke in opposition to the bill, taking pru*
cipally the ground that its remoteness, dif
ficulty of access and sterility rendered the
idea of its settlement by civilized citizens
wild and visionary Mr. Gorham succeed
ed in opposition to the bill, chiefly on the
ground that it would be an infringemnnt of
the convention between this country and
Great Britain, entered into in 1818, and
renewed ip 18 -7. Mr.Richardson, a mem
ber of the committee which reported the
bill, advocated its passage, and went into
details to show the validity of our title to
the territory about the mouth of the Oregon,
and to disprove the statements in region
to its sterility. He was succeeded by Mr
Drayton, who objected to the bill in its
present shape, and suggested that a discre
tion should be vested in the president to
state adequate measures for the protection
of such citizens as may migrate to this ter*
t itory. Mr. Strong then obtained the floor
but yielded to Mr. Polk, who suggested
that the committee should rise, and be dis
charged from the further consideration of
the subject, and that the bill should be re
committed with instructions. The com
mittee, on motion of Mr. Strong, then rose
and reported progress. Mr. Polk then
moved that the committee of the whole on
the state of the Union, be discharged from
the further consideration of the bill, and
that it fle referred to the committee ou the
territories*, ('the committee which reported
the bill having ceased to exist,) with in
structions to amend it, by introducing a
clause extending the jurisdiction of the
courts of Michigan, to the territory, and
also authorizing the sending out of a party
of exploration, to survey and make report
of the condition and character ofthecoun*
* try. Before any question was taken on this
motion, the house adjourned.
January 1.
Tn the senate, yesterday, the bill for the
continuation of the Cumberland Road, was
ordered to a third reading. The bill allow
ing an additional drawback on refined sugar
was, after some discussion, ordered to a
third reading by a decisive vote The
senate adjourned over to Friday.
In the House of Representatives, vester
day after various resolutions were offered
and adopted, the house took up the consi
deration of bill to authorize the occupa
tion of the Oregwn territory Mr. Polk,
withdrew his moti< n to recommit the bill,
in order to allow Mr Lloyd an opportunity,
which he requested, to amend it so as to
meet the wUhes of the house. The house
then resolved itself into committee of the
whole on the state of the Union, and resum
ed the discussion of the subject. Mr. Strong,
spoke against the bill, as containing jjro
visions which would infringe upon the ex
isting convention of Great Britain. Mr •
Storrs, also opposed the bill on the s,m*
eround. The amendment offend by M .
Lyi*n, was rejected; and, after an explain’
lion, by Mr. Gurley, oi the amendment 4n
had submitted, that also was negatived.
Mr. tv eeais made some observations in op
position to the bib; and Mr. Richaiusun of*
. (bred a brief explanation on the subject of
the convention, contencfing that it could
■ not be violated by the provisions of ho bill.
Mr. Drayton moved* to amend the bill by
striking out all its material sections, and
inserting a substitute . which pro/ides that
an exploring party, shall be seut out, and
that the president shall be authorized to
’ send a part of the army, not to exceed four
hundred men, for the protection of such
citizens as shall settle there Mr. Lloyd
spoke in reply to the objections urged a*
gainst the bill, and was replied to by Mr.
Bates of Missouri. Mr. Taylor then muv*
gd ah amendment to the amendment of Mr.
Drayton; and with a view to have the se
veral amendments primed, Mr. Ward mov
ed that the committee rise, which w?s a
greed ‘to. The amendments were then
ordered to be printed.
will be seen that yesterday, in the
House of Representatives, Mr. Sprague,
from the Committee of Way and xMeans,
reported a bill to repeal the tonnage duty
on vessels of the United Slates and on
certain foreign vessels.
