Believing as he uad represented, that this appropriation would result in the speedy telief of the deeply em barrassed portion of the community. How ever, differing with his opinion as regarded the eifects to be produced by the appropria tion, there was a partial reflection. But by the resolute determination of the largest part <.t that honorable body, made tlie decision final, leaving us wholly unable to calculate the vast good that would have been produced from tlie views and suggestions o£ Governor ! McDonald, for what reason we are at a loss ■ to imagine, unfcas they were acting under: disguised principles to avoid detection on a subject u Inch [ will more fully explain before 1 conclude. 1 he Legislature, in the commencement of i the session, seemed indeed to be engaged in ‘ unfolding mysteries, and error followed their i whole proceedings, and consequently the good of the country was entirely overlooked, and the rights of the people left to grope in utter darkness. But had that honorable body advocated w ith so much zeal the promotion of our interests, as their anxiety for the speedy removal of our ablest and best officers, and distinguished statesmen from office, and sup ply their places with weak Harrison aspirants, and pursued with a zeal and consistency springing from an earnest attachment to tlie great interest and prosperity of our boasted soil, suggested by McDonald, who entertain* ing the warmest feelings in the greatest lead ing principles that constitute the great inter est of the country which have been produced from the wholesome doctrines advocated by j him in the advancement of the good of tlie country, make him an ornament in our ranks, and worthy of our support. Ilad those deep principles of right been sustained by the J le gislature of this State, our present embar rassed circumstances would have been greatly removed, and the farming and mechanical in terest advanced, and the hard laboring classes generally promoted, and not swindled and de frauded out of their dearest rights, by the im proved system of rail roads, internal improve ments, focal institutions and other like cheats, that monopolize the whole of trade. These local Banks have produced the most pern: cious state of things, throughout the largest portion of our State. They are, in fact, swind ling shops,* barterers of the liberty of our citi zens, and instead, therefore, of being subject to the will of the people, the people have be come by submission the mere tools of power. These local banks have, indeed, no restric tions, the law has no control over them. The sovereign of the State, the law-making power after contending against, fearful odds until ex hausted and subdued reluctantly, relinquish her right of authority to that of the Banks. I ask, is this a safe system of a once happy and independent people, to hazard Iter freedom to moneyed monopoly ? Can tlie citizens of Georgia believe themselves safe, acting un der vassalage of this King ? An inferior pow er resisting the sovereignty of the State ! ! Are the citizens of this Slate so entirely igno rant of their own interests and their lellovv tnen elsewhere, as to permit themselves im posed upon, gulled, deceived into measures that may result in their final destruction ? Tlien reflect on the proceedings of the last Legislature, and see what benefit was de rived from it. They passed a special act re quiring the Banks to resume specie payment at a particular time therein specified. Ob serve the spirit by which they were actuated, and ask yourselves the question, as though you were holding communion with your own thoughts, and say whether it was of that bril liant and glowing spirit that elevates man’s thoughts, and causes the r sterner souls to how with admiration and submission to the! beautiful principles of equitable justice, or 1 was it tile boasted “Harrison reform” the I great engine by which the rights of the peo- j pie were waited away on the broad ocean of despair ! Wlio were the warm aud untiring advocates of tlie Van tiuren measures in the last Legislature; and who passed it! Were they the friends and supporters of the Van Buren party; a principle, a deviation front w hich, would be a sacrifice of honor, on the tires of patriotism and valor, which burn into the soul tlie sacred images ol home and coun try ! or were they the heretofore violent and almost inexorable friends of the Banks sand Why this change ! was it for the love ot coun try, or was it thirst for power ! some ambushed measure to rule the tide ot gain ! There was also a previous pledge of prosperous times alter the elevation of Harrison to the Presi dency, and this was the plan ad> pted previ ous to the sitting of the Legislature, to dupe and deceive the peop'e ; that the now Harri son parly in power would force the Banks to ihe discharge of t’lotr duty by co-operating with the views of the Van Buren portion ot the last Legislature. But old birds are not eas.ly caught with chaf'd they are too much oti the alert to he entrapped by shadows. This party had not the most remote idea of sustaining any measure calculated to distress the Banks, hat rather facilitating their inter ests after resumption, to the great injury oi the country, by enabling thorn more creditably to suspend. And can it be possible that Georgia can he so careless and indifferent to her interest as to pass this base cheat uuob se ved ! If thus, 1 entreat, l implore you to pause, lor even now we stand upon the brink of fate. There is too much depending on her exertions at this era of our aflairs, to hazard our liberties on the fidelity of the aspirants to i power, the creatures ol a moment 1 men, \\ no if you force them to the point on any act of theirs, cry aloud for principles, pretty fellows ■ to apeak of principles! men who have aban- 1 doiied their principles, and even tiro principles , of their constituents, the republican prmci- < pies of Georgia ! -As soon as the Legislature had dispersed and the Hanks felt themselves , secure from censure by a compliance with her act, and the great interest of. the people come j in contact with theirs, there was a strong pie - . sumption of suspension, resting some where, | for as soon as the effort was made to force upon them their own bills lor redemption, there was a cry of horror, as though daggers were piercing the inmost researches of their souls ; as though some foreign emissary had landed upon our coasts, and kindled a confla gration which is sweeping with desolation over the land, and has only to embark lor his own country, and there look back securely, with indifference or exultat ion, upon the wide spread ruin, the work ot his own hands. \ n d with this feeble excuse, suspension fol lowed immediately, and the citizens left to sustain the injury without redress. It is lair to suppose that the heretofore honest, upright and correct gentlemen who watched with an e i the iate administration, have great iy nrJstted'bv’ their sagacity, but being mexpe lvviced and not so accurate and accomplished vi tin business, were more easily detected and brought before the eyes ot the world, to h li:fT tlitT penalties of censure and contempt fir their oerli tv. Notwithstanding, there is vet cause to tear 0:1 their part Tlie fatted “•warm has been driven from its prey, and a }j ~,-rry and fiercer on- turned loose, the watch word, lav low and ke p dark, and we 1 1,, i„to the n a feet ! But tue poor little tel inv that watted patently, watching his op portunity to grab at Urn bulk, whale the more powerful monstcre were feathering their nests, waited too long, for as soon a3 he thought he dare venture, he raised himself carefully from his cover and peeped over, and behold ! his companions were gone; at this favorable op portunely his heart palpitated with delight, and quick as thought hounded over the obsta cles that obstructed his sight, and on a close examination found the .vaults robbed of the much desired treasure. How humbled at this sight, liis hopes fled. He turned away with horror from the scene ol action, his bright est anticipation was no more, he was a silent observer while the assassin loaded himself with the spoils. Now all is calm within, and he leit to reflect upon tlie deed, pennyless, though not tlie less guilty of the crime. Siill no human eye witnessed the deed ; vet he sufiored the wreck of torture. He retired to ills private lodgings to repose, but alas! there was none. The eye of heaven penetrated the dai ses* chambers of his soul ; tract his sleep less meditations through the night, and al though he had screened himself from human sight, yet he knew he must he arraigned be j lore high heaven for the perpetration of an act | that would create eternal and ever last ing tor tures in his once peaceful bosom. To resume j ! our thread of argument, we must again be ! j permitted to return to the Banks. The moth-1 er ot the Banks the tool of power; and why? because if the local Institutions he permitted i to gather strength as they have previously j done, without a check, the whole power will j be vested in them. How ? by a preparation ! t >r resumption previous to the sitting of the J Legislature and suspension immediately there after By this means she will be enabled fully to acquit and exculpate herself from censure, by the “ilarrrison reform” legislature of Georgia. In this way they may become a powerful ma chine, and carry desolation, dismay, and I may say, almost death, throughout the largest por tions of our once happy and independent State. Thus will they continue, unless her bold effort is repulsed, until they may be compelled to submit to the bloody and inhuman yoke of tyranny and oppression. To illustrate that idea, look at Mexico, a few years ago she awoke from a lethargy of centuries and in the majesty of millions of citizens drove Cas tilian bondage from her, like dew drops from a morning breeze. But behold her now, wretched, accursed victim of self-oppression and debasement, destroyed by discord, bleed ing at every pore by party strife—her resour ces exhausted, her name a by word of con tempt and abhorrence. But what, I ask, will be the situation of the States, (organized and managed as the v are now) if, by the destruction of our national compact, they be left to themselves. What is the probable result? We will either be the victims of foreign intrigues, and split into factions, laboring under the dominion of for eign power, or else after the misery and tor ture ot Bank faction be compelled to become the subjects of despotism. This gigantic power has and will threaten to convulse to the centre the whole commercial and industrious system of our fertile and luxuriant country. The people 1 fear, are not awake to their cor rect situation, or they could not calmly submit to the disastrous effects produced by their le thargy. H. H. L. From the Globe. CONGRESSIONAL ANALYSIS. Senate. —The National Bank came up as the special order, Mr. Merrick, as we under stood at tlie adjournment, was entitled to the ll ior to-day to resume the debate on Mr. Hives amendment, making the assent of the States necessary to the introduction of branch es within their borders. Bui by some ar rangement, we suppose, among the friends of tn.s amendment, Mr Choate, the member from Boston, rose and entered upon an anx ious aud pressing appeal to the Administration side of toe chamber to unite in the adoption of this plan of a Bank, as tlie only possible mode of accomplishing the principal object tor which the extra session was convened.— \lr. Clay of Kentucky entered the chamber shortly alter Mr. Chsate had begun what was afterwards called his “ imploration,” and if we did not egregiouslv misinterpret the ex pression ot’ lus lace, which was certainly marked with very legible lines of strong emo tion, he was prepared as little for “ the enter tainment to which vve were invited,” as he relished it when he came. He shook his head in a sort of soliloquy in his seat; fixed his mouth in strong compression; and nodding to and fro in dumb show, and folding Ins hands within eaclt other, he threw tumsell back in Ids chair, and extended his limbs in another, at lull length, as if to nsult his pil low for a tinai determination. At last he rose and went from friend to friend in the progress ol’ Mr. Choate’s speech, and was evidently encountered by earnest expostulation. He seemed tranquilized by degtees, and we sup posed It id come to tlie resolution that iie would sit quiet, and bear it with becoming res ignation to the end. But he was pinched in : a place that brought him to itis feet. Mr. Choate, among other inducements to draw the \\ higs to the support of Mr. Rives | amendment, said, “ l have r o doubt—indeed, j l will say to my friends that i.kmnv —if they 1 adhere to this Bank lull without the amend ment now proposed, they will bas e no Bairit {this session.” Mr. Clay, of Kentucky, could stand it r.o longer; but bridling Ins passion to a show ol i courtesy, asked, \N ill the Senator from Mas j sachusetts allow me to interrupt him a mo il ment ? It is but one word, sir—to ask him a plain question. He says, positively, that we are to have no Bank tins session, unless the | amendment is adopted—that he knows it.— i Now 1 have every respect for the arguments land opinions of the Senator from Massachu j setts ; but when he goes beyond an expression of opinion, and positively asserts that lie | knows tlieie will he no Bank bili this session, ! an inference is left to be drawn, which com pels me to rise and call on him to give the grounds otr which he makes this broad assei tion. Mr. Choate replied. Surely the Senator from Kentucky wnl allow me, without imei- j motion, the right of expressing manfully my firm conviction, wiihoui be mg obliged ingivej reasons, which I cannot give without a j breach of privilege, or violating a partiamen-j tarv rule, which 1 do not feel disposed to vio late. I tell the Senator again, there will be no Bank this session, unless this amendment prevails. [Here Mr. C. was allowed to proceed with out interruption.] Mr. Simmons spoke next. After he had concluded. Mr. Arcl er spoke for some time. When alluding to the influence brought to bear from the President’s opinions, and Mr. Clay’s attempt to draw out a direct admission, that the President’s resolution in regard to the mo tion pending,” was referred to by Mr Choate. — Mr. Clay asked the Senator from Tirginia, to allow him to explain what he did sa v. He had interrupted the Senator from Massachu setts, to ascertain upon what ground the as sertion was made, positively made, that there could be uo Bank, but the thing tendered by the gentleman from Virginia. It did not fol low that the fact stated, depended on the de ter....nation of the Executive. It might be that the gentleman had polled one or the oth er of the legislative branches, and found that the thing now presented, was the only meas ure that could he carried. Mr. Choate |made {same explanation, not distinctly heard. It was understood to be, that he had not used the name or official au thority of the Executive ; but had expressed hi conviction, derived from|many facts and deductions, which he did not think necessary to exp’ain. .„ , , . . Mr. Clay. I ant satisfied that the honora ble Senator made an assertion much stronger than that which he now makes. Ho said he knew there would be no Bank this session, un less this amendment was adopted. 1 wanted to ascertain how he knew the fact. I ought not have been authorized in supposing he knew it from the Executive; he might have derived his knowledge from lire other branch ; but I wanted to know where he got the tact from. Mr. Choate, ft is proper for me to say, that I never exchanged a syllable with the Executive, or derived from his lips any ex pression on this subject I said that I believed this was tiie only way we had to get a Bank this session; and l stated distinctly, that 1 had no authority for saying this from the Ex ecutive, or any one else whom the Senator from Kentucfiy alludes to, as my supposed [authority. • 1 stated my own conv.ctious. Mr. Ciay. I rise,.sir, to vindicate myself from the inference that 1 had no grounds for [questioning the Senator when J interrupted ium. The inference that I interfered in con seqtit nee of a mere express on of t.is opinion, :is not warranted. I did nosoch thing. The : gentleman said that lie knew we would have ! no bark this session unless we adopted this a ! mendment. lie made the assertion most positively, as‘il from the authority of some competent power te render the measure nugatory I wanted to know what authority, he had lor the assertion; aud, lor that purpose alone, 1 interrupted him. Mr. Choate, I had given my conviction. The Senator from Kentucky asked me what grounds I rested my belief upon. I replied that 1 based them on facts and deductions I did not think proper to disclose. I did not, m giving convictions from a beliefl could not control, imply that I had any Executive au thority for what Ijstated. Mr. Clay—(excited.) Will the gentleman say that he did not, in answer to my direct interrogatory, state that he could not disclose the source of his convictions without a breach of privilege and violation ot parliamentary rule ? . , Mr. Choate attempted again to explain, but was interrupted by Mr. Clay, in great ex citement. Mr. Clay. That, sir, is not the thing.— Did you dot say that you could not, without breach ot privilege, and violation of parlia mentary rtU, disclose your authority? Mr. Choate. Sir, I insist on my right to explain what I did say in mv own words. Mr. Clay, (under great excitement.) “Did you not say, sir, that— Mr. Preston. 1 rise, sir, (addressing the Chair and advancing towards the centre of the floor, where Mr. Clay stood close to Mr. Choate,) 1 rise sir to a question of order. The chair called the Senator to orderand after a little agitation, all were seated. This brief memoranda of the words fur rushes but an imperfect idea of the scene. — The manner in which the affair was conduc ted cannot be trahsferred to paper. Mr. Clay, who sits on the opposite side ol the chamber lrom Mr. Choate, had approached him, before the second altercation began, so that there was hut a single seat between them. When Mr. Choate rose in reply to Mr. Clay’s renewed suggestions, urged in the most insulting tone, Mr. Clay kept his feet. In fact, he turned upon him, and fixed an eye like that of the basilisk, directly in his face ; andnvheri he put his last question, be did ii with an emphasis and an expression of coun tenance which made it perfectly plain to an observer, that it was an obvious attempt to Fletcherize Mr. Choate on the floor of the Senate of the United States.—Globe. To tlie Editors of the Charleston Courier : Seeing in your paper of yesterday the fol lowing extract, viz: “ When is Mr. John C. Hamilton coming out with the third volume of his father’s life? We are curious to see it-—especially the his tory of the organization of tlie first bank of the United States. It has been intimated to ns that it will disclose the remarkable fact, that the original opposition of A r irginia to scruples, but from a desire to have ti e national capital established at Richmond. Philadel phia was at that time the seat of Government The Virginians wished to carry it to Rich mond ; and they feared that the establishment of a National hank at Philadelphia would be an obstacle in their way. ‘lienee they were ready to support the bank charter on the con dition that it should be limited to ten years. But thirty years wa3 longer than the Rich mond people could wait. Hence again, the constitutional scruples, which were an after thought.—N..Y. Com. Adv. I was forcibly reminded of the remarks of Col. Burr, frequently made to me, and prob ably to others in his confidence, of General Washington’s compromise in signing the first charter of aU. States Bank. He staged to me, that it was the most ardent wish of Gen. Washington to have the Capital of the Feder al Government where it is now located. That he objected to signing the Bank bill, unless there was a satisfactory assurance of the re moval of the seat of government to its present site. That he told the friends of a national batik, that he could defend lilsre/o upon con stitutional grounds, for they well knew that the Convention refused giving the right of chartering a bank or other corporat ion to Con gress. The compromise followed, and bo h acts passed the rein. How iar Burr ruay be right or wrong, I know not —two facts are certain, the one that he often made the above statements to me, and the oilier is that the acts alluded to passed, the same session of Con gress. Yours, respectfully, John L. Wilson. Tho city is overrun with office seekers of every descript ion. They come in dfoves from ali quarters of the Union, except New Eng land, and they torment the President almost beyond endurance. He will eventually be constrained to exclude the whole horde, if he cannot otherwise protect himself from unseas onable intrusion and importunity. Why do they not coniine their-annoyance to the cabi net where it legitimately belongs! When [ a highwayman threatened to shoot an Eng iisii liob’eman, his reply was—“ Shoot the ser vants, ifit is just as agreeable to you—they I are paid for it.” Why is it that the whig press and particu larly that portion devoted to Mr. Clay, is at this juncture assailing Mr. Wise with such ferocity! Why rake open the unhappy affair in which Ciiley was shot, at tins late day ! Do the friends of Mr. Ciry desire to provoke a publication of the secret history of that transaction ! Are they anxious to have all the facts—all the collateral circumstances of that matter laid before the public? If such is not their wish, why revive recollections so painful to all, and from which no good can pos sibly arise lo any body 1 There seems to be a concerted determina tion to break Mr. Wise down, or drive him out of the party- Neither effort can succeed. He has the talent and the disposition to main tain his position against odds of any magni tude. Mr. Wise is entirely misunderstood,, wilfully in Congress, and ignorantly by the whig press, and it will soon become necessary to set him right before the people.—Wash. Cor. N. Y. Herald. Just as our paper was going to press, the following was put into our hands : Nashville, June 22,1841. Dear Sir—General Jackson was taken very ill yesterday morning about 8 o’clock. I took up Dr. Robertson by 1 o’clock, and left him a short, time ago. much improved, and quite easy sleeping. It was an attack of cramp cholic, and 1 have never seen him so far gone, or so much prostrated. He may recover from this attack, but I fear that he will remain very feeble. , P. S —Mr. Crutcher has just got down, and brings favorable accounts of the General. He is still improving.—Globe, 2d inst- We received some time since tlie Report of J. Edgar Thompson, Esq. Chief Engineer of the Ga. Railroad, made to the Company on 10th May last and exhibiting the progress and [condition of this great enterprize on the Ist |of April. The Road is now finished and in operation from Augusta to Madison, a dis tance of 104 miles. Tlie continuation above Madison to the chartered limit at Decatur, a distance of 67 1-2 miles —where it will uuite with the Western and Atlantic R. K-, by which it will be connected with the Tennessee river, is estimated to cost 01,215,091, 90. The gross profits of t)ie Road in use for the year ending 31st of March IS 11 have been 0153,- 225, 11 —expenditures $67,283,34 —net prof its $90,941,77- —equal to 6 per cent on the cost of tlie Road now in use. Mr. Thompson’s Report is accompanied by, a very interesting and valuable map of the, whole region South of the Ohio from the At lantic to the Mississippi, on which are sketched the various R. Road connections, completed, in progress and in project.— Charleston Mercury. Bluffing the Arrangement. —One Uriah Ginn, who kept a groggery somewhere on the Mississippi, advertised lately, that he was a bout absquatulating, because he was not pre pared to “ shell out the coru, and wipe off old scores.” He said, however, that he would use every effort to settle all his debts wherein he had value received, but he wished it to be em phatically understood” by those who held pa per money with his name saddled on it as en dorser, that he “ bluffed the whole arrange ment,” and that those who held claims a gainst him upon that footing, might turn the screw’s and grind on, and if they got their money before Ginn did> to “sing it out.” Fun ny fellow* that Ginn- The Exchanges.— The Exchanges be tween New York and Liverpool, amounting probably to from 20 to 40 millions annually are conducted without a regulator or any common paper currency. The standard for the rate of these Exchanges is gold and silver but even this medium is not used in conduc ting the Exchanges to the amount of one per cent of the total amount of the transactions between the two places. If then, the merchants, State banks, private bankers and money dealers in New’ York, can provide for and carry on the Exchanges to this vast amount, without any manufacturer of a paper currency for tli* world—cannot these same persons conduct the Exchanges between New Yofk and Boston and the other cities of the Union, without a National Bank or a fis cal regulator ? —Albany Argus.
