DEGRADATION OP THE PEEGS. j
This powerful engine is rtpid'v losing dsj
influence over the public in in i. In many in
stances it is wholly degraded and ) -res; : into, j
and in others, who attempt to s'i.-l < : n a better
character, tie cloven foot of base morals is ;
disclosed at every tin. The connmtmce is
already felt loan alarming decree ; the state-;
merits ami opinions of the or* ss being x-garc!-
ed with contempt. Let those who conduct
the press take herd now that we are in the i
sunshine of liberty—let them frown indignant- j
ly on every attempt to give to falsehood the in- ]
lhrence and power of truth. These remarks)
Isre elicited by several attempts lately made, to j
deceive the people in regard to tire situation !
and management of the Central Bank. Our j
readers will hud in this paper the facts of this |
case so far ns the payment of the debt to the
Phoenix Bank is coucerne l. it is published
<m authority which we well know, will not be
questioned* But, it inay be well to contrast
tire truth with what we have seen teeming
from the “ respectable ” presses in Georgia.
The Savannah Republican publishes from
two New York papers, extracts, which it ut
ters “lbr what they are worth, though contra
dictory.” (>ne of these articles from the New
York Express, contains a well meaning, but J
inaccurate statement, of tire settlement with j’
the Phoenix Bank. This might, without fault, I
have been published, for what it was “worth.” j
The oilier lrom the Ilerald, we extract entire.’
“it is a well known ft cl, that in 1838, Geor-j
via borrrowed from the Phumix Bank in tins 1
city *5300,000, payable at twelve month', for
which ample individual security was given.
On the maturity of the paper, every dollar was
protested, and for the period of twelve months,
no attention to the repeated demand for!
payment was regarded. About two years,
since, tire State, to its eternal disgrace, otiered j
to the Phcenix Bank payment for this loan in i
Augusta funds at par—then 10 to 1” per cent j
discount. It not accepted, an intimation of
an indefinite postponement of the payment of
the same was given. iSince that period, a por
tion of the amount has been paid and within
a few days some $”0,000 more of tho debt
lias been reduced, leaving about $ 140‘01X) or
$150,000 of the principal unpaid.
At this moment, R* \\ . - dmson and i)oct.
Fort of Milledgevillo are here, delegated to;
raise $300,000 o* he bonds of the State of
■Georgia, bearing an interest of eight per cent,
by virtue of an * authorising the nsuirig ot
that amount, tr be sold at par only.
Should there be lire least variation in the
terms and comlffi ” upon which they are per
mitted to be issued, the Legislate of t fiat
State would’•epeJiate them in a moment.—
The acts < . their Legislature are too well
knov. a to doubt the fact. Did not the Legis-
Jat *e t.vo years since pass, or nearly so, an
act to stop the collection of all debts l'cr a cer
tain period ? Did they not authorise a bank
rupt concern, to issue a million ot worthless
pa IK-"? And have they net recognized in their
courts every delay to frustrate the collection
of debts due out of the Slate] With such
views, what safety can there be in making any
.negotiation with these commissioners !
Air. Johnson and Doctor Fort have had re-;
peated interviews with the Phoenix Dank. A ;
few days since they paid £>B,ooo and were toj
have paid <§ - J0,lH)0 more last w eek, and urged |
U pon the presiding •' , icer of tiic bank to whom |
the State si ill owed sjHoO.OOO, to acknowledge j
t.he whole debt paid, stating the impossibility
iif negotiatin' l, tha bonds it tins indebteunecs
remained.

of the debt; run you or the state still further
in debt, and never make any provisions to pay
the stale debts thus created by themselves.”
The editors who have thus published and i

to be entirely false. Every one of them know I
that, the debt to the Phenix Bank was con-j

that during the first year of Governor Mc-
Donald’e administration, all the interest and a
large amount of the principal of this debt was
discharged. All this they knew at the time

now we have the pleasure to inform them that
this debt with all its interest has been fully
and satirfactorily discharged. That this lias
been effected by the Central Bank wilhout
any aid from the exceedingly defective tax bill
of the Whig Reform Legislature of 1810.
That, it has been done by Doctor T. Fort, pres
ident and Wm. Y. Hansel, and Isaac Newel,
directors, appointed by Governor McDonald.
These facts are not mentioned as a matter of
boasting—they are a small tribute and bare

the duties required of them by their appoint

SYNOPSIS OF THE BANKRUPT BILL.
For the purpose of bringing the principal
provisions of this bill within a small compass,

ed, passed the Senate some time since, and
Las not yet been acted on in the House.
Section 1. Enacts that a uniform system of
Bankruptcy be established throughout the U.

with an inventory of his or their property of
any kind, verified by oath, apply to the proper
court for the benefit of tins act, shall be deem
ed bankrupts, and may be declared so by a de
cree of such courts. All persons being mer
chants or retailers of merchandize, all bank
ers, factors, brokers, underwriters, or marine
insurers, owing debts to the amount of not
less titan $2,000, “” ue liable to become
bankrupts, and upon petition of one or
more of their creditors to whom they owe not
less Than SSOO, be so declared in the follow
imo* cases, to wit: whenever each debtor shall
depart from the Slate of which he is an in
habitant, with intent to defraud his creditors;
or shall procure himself to be arrested or have
Ins noods,*x.c. taken in execution; or shall
j remove his goods, &c. or conceal them, to pre
j vent their being levied on; or make any fraud
! ulent assignment of erre of his lands, goods:
j itc. Provided, however, ai>_y person so de

’ bankruptcy, or tor the purpose of giving any
j creditor an undue preference, on any such
payment or conveyance to any person not a
creditor, fora valuable consider, ‘ion, without
1 notice, shall be deemed void and a fraud upon
this art, and ‘he assignee unde” the baukrupt

THE 300,000 DOLLAR DEBT OF THE
CENTRAL BANK.
Tliis famous three hundred thousand dol
lar protested dehtol the Slate, to the Pioenix
Bank of New York lias been paid oil'. Dr.
Fort, the President of the Central Bank re
turned a lew days ago, and deposited the
State’s bonds fully receipted with ample and
satisfactory acquittances thereon, in the vault
of the Central Bank, The “ coupons ” of the
bonds for the State’s forego debt have been
paid in London, and they were also brought
with him, and placed in the same sale and
honorable location. The State and the Bank
are thus relieved lrom the odium ot a protest
ed debt, over which great regret has been
felt.
The innumerable statements which have
been made respecting the State’s liabilities,
and especially in relation to the debt to the
Phoenix Bank of New York, together with the
newspaper publications which have been
made to mis.ead the public mind, renders it
proper that a short statement of the facts of
the case should be submitted to the people.
The first (act to which we call the atten
tion of our readers is, that the interest paya
ble in London on the State’s bonds has been
punctually paid. The Stale’s credit has
never sufiered dishonor in reiaiion to these
bonds.
The second is—that the debt to the Phoenix
Bank was contracted under an act ot the
Legislature of 1837, assented to by Governor
Giimer on the ‘2s;h December, 1337. The
loan was ohiained the next year by F. I .
Delauney , Thomas B. Stubbs and T<omas
E ord, a board of D-rectors for the Central
Bank, who were appointed by the same
Chief Magistrate ; and that .Mr. V. B. Stubbs
was tlie agent oi the L ink in negotiating tor
tli is loan. It was dishonored and protested
for non-payment in 1839, during the admin
istration of the same hoard, and of the same
Governor, and at a time when Mr. Delauney
(lie then President of the Bank was in New
York or had been there and thereabouts
nei r 'y or quite three months endeavoring io
negotiate tor the arrangement of settlement
of the debt without a protest dishonoring the
| credit of the State, but whose efforts were
I iiu licctual.

From the Journal ot Commerce.
GEOH and l A .
The President of the Central Bank of Ga.
has recently been here for th'Epurpojc, among
other tilings, of paying a tousideraUe debt
which the Btate contracted S'une .time ago
with the Phenix Bank of this city. This debt
has been paid in full, and tiie interest on tiie
fiber bonds not yet due. Tiie finances ol
Georgia seem, upon the whole, to be in a
very sale and prosperous condition. A friend
who is intimately acquainted vvilh the facts,
.has favored us with the lolloiving memoran
dum :
Previous to ihe commencement of the Wes
torn and Atlantic Rail Iload, (in the i
State ol Georgia had a full Treasury, Her I
investments i •. hank stocks amounted to a (
mi;.ion o£dul!ars, and the Cenlr;;! Bank, her j
own institution, had an addhimial capital of j
nearly two millions. Her Gordon of the sur- !
her resources to nearly four m V, Hh
:nis rceuieul ited caper! i isdcr the control of
tiie Central Bank, it ik not Strange that the
ieg’-buue .o! 183-? should have ordered that
insiilut on io obtain a loan of $300,000 for one
year and no longer. The sudden and great j
fail in ihe price of cotton in Idoy and the un
exampled -shortness of lee,crop < f 1310, will
fully account for the difficulty which has hin
dered the earlier payment of this debt.
The same year (1533) in which the loan
of $300,000 was ordered, the legislature pas
sed an act authorizing the sale of $1,509,000
of her bonds having ihirty years to tun. Oi’
these bonds nearly $900,1-00 having been dis
posed of, and now constitute the entire public
debt of that State, no part of the interest of
which has ever been allowed to lie over.
The Western and Allantic rail road, which
is intended to connect the cities of Charleston
and Savannah with tiie Great Valley of the
MhsLsippi, by lines of railroads’ 400 miles in
length, is now in a state of forwardness, fully
two thirds of the expense having been paid.
St may require a raid-ion of dollars to com
plete ttie Slate’s portion of these great lines.
This is the only public work now in the con
templation of the State ol Georgia, her citi
zens being almost unanimously opposed to
the commencement of any other.
Permanent laws for the assessment of taxes
have been passed, which it is estimated will
bring into the Treasury annually a surplus
fund of $250,000, applicable to the discharge
of the Slate’s obligations, besides the profits
of the Central Bank, which will amount to
about $120,000.
Out of these funds a sinking fund of seven
ty-five thousand dollars per annum is set
apart for the reduction of the principal ol the
public debt though no part of it is due lor 20
years.
The Slate has not involved itself in en
dorsements of the bonds of her chartered com
panies. Her endorsement is given to the
Central Bank alone, and this is her own insti
tution. Its Binds are ample to meet ass its
obligations, and it will yet have a capital
larger than ihe public debt of the State.
Nor has the State been unmindful to raise
the value of her currency. She has author
ized the issue of State bonds payable at the
hank and hearing 8 per cent, interest, to be
given in exchange for Central Bank bills at
the counter of the bank. She has gone far
ther, in authorizing the sale ot’ similar bonds
in distant States, with interest payable in this
.city, to raise a fund for the redemption of
these hills.

Newnan. o h August, 1841.
Dear Sir. —The Relief Convention, for
the Coweta Circuit, has just closed its session
at this place. There were from twelve to fif
teen bundled persons present, including tiie
delegates from nine counties in the Circuit.
Judge Warner. Gen. Haralson and Wm. B.
Pryor- Esq. addressed the convention. Res
olutions were adopted, recommending the re
election of Gov. McDonald, approving me

rable exertion, to deieat the Federal Aristoc
racy, who have not only peremptorily refused
to extend any relief whatever to the people
but have increased their burthens, with op
pressive taxation. The old Democratic Ship,
is now fairly launched upon her native ele
ment, in the Coweta Circuit, with her sails
all set, and wafted by a gallant breeze, and
il I am not mistaken in the signs of the times
she will give the enemies of Relief, and Dan
iel Webster with his Federal crew, such a
broadside, on the first Monday in October
next, as will at least cause her to be respec
ted. The people are moving in their majes
ty, and like the current of a deep and mighty ri
ver, their course will be resistless. It is surpri
sing to see, how quick the people can discov
er the ascendency of Federal principles, in
the measures of the Whig party now in
power. I sincerely wish every honest Whig
in thej State of Georgia could have been
present on this occasion. Every thing was
conducted with decency and order. A free
Barbacue was given by the citizens of Cow
eta, to the citizens of Coweta, to the Dele
gates and the people generally. Depend up
on it, the people are taking the business of
Relief into their own hands. They say Mr.
Dawson had better remain in Congress, and
endeavor to redeem his promises made last
year to the people about retrenchment and
reform. One gentleman asked me to-day, if
( I could tel! h!m why it was, that Mr. Ewing
in his report, demanded three and a half inil
! lions more money, to carry on the govern
ment this year, than Mr. Van Buren expen
ded last year, for the same object ? Os course
I could not only tell him, u was the legimale
consequence of Federalism and reform. I
regret I cannot procure a copy of the resolu
tions to forward you, but the mail is closing,
and I must conclude.
Respectfully, tye.
THE STEAM PLOUGH.
We have received from J. J>. Wilkins,
Esq. of this Parish, a communication giving
the plan on which it was proposed to procure
a steam plough to work our prairies. We
are glad to hear that five or six persons have
already subscribed liberally. The following
is the proposition on the part of the subscri
ber*:—•
“We, the subscribers, bind ourselves, our
heirs and assigns, to pay to any Mechanic
either ol America or Europe, who will invent
and reduce to successful practice, a steam
plough, that will fallow ten acres in the day,
eight inches deep, into five feet and a half
beds, at three (urrovvs to the bed, either across
or around the fieid, in the county of Atlaka
pas, La., the sums opposite our names below,
its witness our subscriptions, this 7lb day of
June, 1941.”
i Mr. Wilkins remarks: —
i “1 have presented this plan to raise a pre
j miiim to induce some enterprising national
mechanic to introduce a steam plough which
| would raise the price and promote the settle
| merit of our prairie to a very profitable ex-
I tent. It costs me a capital of $12,000 in ne
j groes. teams and ploughs to (allow ten acres,
of land in a day, five inches deep. With a
! capital of $3,090 including the cost of the
steam plough, I could fallow tire same land in
the day, much deeper. I also conjecture a’
steam plough can be made to fallow much]
more than ten acres in the day. I think a 1
! premium of SIO,OOO would excite and set, to!
j work some man gifted with ingenuity, and
] procure ns ibe introduction of the wished for
! swam plough, for which our level lands are so
j admirably adapted. 1 have only presented
i this subscription to a few of rny neighbors,
j and five have sub'eribed a thousand dollars,
j zCer.iiv everyune i have mentioned it to nre

News FroW the Lantern Boundary—
The Hon. J. M. Hansford, who arrived a lew
days since in Babiue county, reports that the
labor ot extending anti defining our eastern
boundary to it lie natural boundary on the
line from Sabine to lied Kiver was much less
than was anticipated, intercepting a bend of:
the liver that would b; left eastward of the 1 1
line.
The line crossed the sulphur fork of Red
River inly alt ne nine miles and o liulf fror>
its mouth in a direct course. After crossing
that water c urse and running north some
twelve or fifteen miles, they unexpectedly
struck what is termed the lower bend of the
river nearly at right angles.
According lo this survey, nil the maps that
we have s'fen are inaccurate, as they do
not make the bend above the confluence of the
sulphur fork sufficiently large to he intercep
ted by a direct north line. As it has proved
however to be of considerable extent, it is
ascertsined that an extensive area of territo
ry will now fall into this Republic that has
hitherto been considered some distance from
the boundary!
Judge Hansford states that the bend in
cludes some of the finest soil on the Red
River, and not less than one hundred and
fifty planters whose personal property will
average each, not less than teu thousand dol
lars.
From the New Orleans Bulletin, Aug. 12
From Texas. —By the steam packet Sa
vannah, from Galveston, we have papers of
that port to the Ist inst, and those of Austin
to the 22d ult.
Rumors were current iD Austin that the
Sante Fe expedition had been informed by
the spies, that they were within 70 miles of a
settlement of Cainanche Indians, who had 400
acres of land in cultivation, and who num
bered several thousand strong. An addition
al force was raised to join the expedition,
and no doubt was felt that all opposition
would be prostrated.
President Lamar had arrived at Houston,
on his return to Austin.
Gen, Urrea, who failed in his attempt to
overthrow the General Government last year,
it is now stated in these papers, is at the head
of a large party of federalists in lower Cali
fornia, on die Pacific, and that the Mexican
government has not the power to put him
down.
The crops of cotton and sugar on the Col
orado, promises well.
We make the following extracts
News from the West.—Three wagons
on the road from the coast to Bexar, were
robbed a short time since by a party of about
twenty Mexicans. They were laden with
tobacco and dry goods, valued at about
SISOO. A spy company left Victoria on the
20th, to ascertain the number and position
of the enemy. The people in the vicinity of
Victoria are exceedingly exasperated at this
outrage, and have held several public meet
ings to devise measures to prevent further
marauding. They have appointed a com.
mittee of safety to correspond with the !Sec
retary of War, &.C. The whole population
in tiiat section are anxious for war. The
Secretary of War has authorized them to j
raise volunteers to disperse the bands of
Mexicans on this side of the Rio Grande.—
These volunteers will rendezvous at Goliad on |
the Ist of August. These repeated acts of
treachery on the part of the Mexicans, had i
destroyed entirely the little confidence our
citizens had placed in them. Another cam
paign would afford the most sincere delight to
the hundreds of idle men who have gathered !
on the western frontier. j
Sagacity of a Dorr.— The Richmond Star
relates the following cn the authority of a
gentleman engaged in the alfliir- which plainly
shows tho remarkable sagacity of the dog :
On Monday last, a dog - , belonging to this
gentleman, accidentally fell into a well; and
for a moment gave him up as lost. But as a
sort of desperate effort *o save the dog, lie
directed a boy to lot a rope he had down into
the well, in the hope that possibly it might
catch around his leg or neck. No sooner,
h .wever, end the rope come within reach,
than the dog seized it with his teeth, and
the parties above finding it had secured him,
bog'ua to draw up; wi.au about half way

rone was let down, and again the dog seized
it, and he was ib uvn nearly to the mouth of

■I HE Breed of Salmon. —For some years;
Mr 1 iaims Alackeusie of Gairlock Baronet,
has been anxious to prevent the total destruc
tion of the salmon race, which has been so
threatening, and winch, in many cases, lias
actually been accomplished ; hut it is only this
season that lie has discovered a satisfactory
remedy for this evil, and proved that the sal
mon can be propagated to any extent artifi
cially, and protected from the natural enemies
of their youth, as easily, and at a smaller ex .
pense, than is required for raising a head of
pheasants, or other game. Sir Francis had
at this moment a large school of young sal
mon fry, hatched during spring/m a° pool
prepared for the purpose, and ready, at the
proper age, to inhabit their native river, the
Ewe, from which the parent fish were taken.
They are now one and a half or two inches
long, and decidedly par; thus confirming what
has so often been asserted, and on a small
scale proved by Mr. Shaw, of Druinlanria;
to whom belongs the credit of fust suggesting
a way of propagating our royal fish, Though
the possibility ol doing it, to any extent that
could reallv prove valuable, was always de
nied. Sir Francis Mackenzie has, however;
by perseverance and zeal in the over:
come the difficulty, and it is hoped, will soon
make known to the public the details of this
interesting and valuable discovery.—lnver

We learn Iron Messrs. Patton, Donegari
Cos., the owners of the Bell factory, sifita
tedon Flint river in this county, which was
recently consumed by fire, that the insurance
taken on the property was only $15,000 and
not $20,000 as heretofore slated bv us, and
was ellected in the Tennessee Marine’ and
Fire Insurance Company, at Nashville.—
That one of the firm recently made a visit
to Nashville to adjust (lie loss. The Com
pany met him with great promptness—a called
session, after an investigation of the docu
ments disclosing the facts relating to the ca
lamity, and being satisfied it originated ill
misfortune, they promptly paid the amount
of insurance, less interesting for 60 days, the
time allowed on the conditions of thepolicy
for the payment of the loss. We ha ve heard
the firm highly commended, individually and
collectively, the Directors of the Company
