Tito Senate has passed the bill from the
Hou.sw introduced into the latter body by Mr.
Pitts, of Stewart,- repealing'the first section of
an act passed by the last Legislature, which
rendered nugatory Iho charter of the Central
JJink—or, in othor words, the bill of Mr. Pitts
gives to the Central Rank its original powers j
and faculties.
The Seriate Ins also agreed to the bill from
the 11 use which authorises the Central Dank
to issue notes to the amount of three hundred
thousand doliarsJMinder the denomination of,
live dollars, in redemption of the hills of that :
institution already out.
A hill of .Mr. Howard, of Muscogee, enlar

the House. It has been amended in fbe Sen

tar as live dollar notes are concerned on tlie
first of .March, and for tens, twenties, fifties I
and hundreds, at regular intervals subsequent- j

September next. If the bill, as amended, j

Gen n.KMKN : \ uur letter ot the 31 ins',
has this moment been received. \\ uhchoer-
Imness and pleasure 1 late the earliest oppor-
Ihnitv to affard you the satisfaction you re
q-iire. Ido it with promptitude : first, because
1 hold it to be your right to inquire, and my
tiaty co answer; secondly, because in making
sjch inquiries you doubtless had in view, to
possess yourself of such information as will
enable you to act adv seJly in bestowingyour
Miffiages.
1 wdl not permit myself to surmise any ul
terior object, or any consideration on your
part, arising from a purpose less worthy titan
that von have avowed; for you say you have
“ been appointed to propound to each of the
candidates for Congress” one and the same
question Nor will I suppose that you will
permit yourselves to be content with any one
of either p'trty who shall omit or refuse to give
you an explicit an l unequivocal reply. The
suggestion of either would degrade you to the
level of those who unworthily strive for mere
party triumph, without reference to the m a
su res or principles on which alone party or
ganization is justifiable. It would strip you
of that high bearing, that should distinguish a
free, intelligent and magnanimous constitu
ency.
There is now, gentlemen, no sensible or
virtuous distinction ut party in Georgia, in rc
, gard to general politics, except such as shall
•J grow out of differences of opinion upon cer
[ tain prominent measures no v agitated before
the people. In the adoption or rejection of
f these, are vitally concerned ihe principles and
• j policy of every triend to the Constitution—of
* every Republican, whether a “Union rnan”
ora “State Rights man.” Distinctions in
, i sound without regard to sense are fast falling
to the ground, and are daily yielding to the
mass of individual interests which control
them.
The “ Bankrupt Law” of the last session
you are pleased to consider one of such vital
importance as should govern you and those
i you represent in justing your votes for mem
;bers of Congress, to be elected on the first
j Monday in January next, “without regard to
j party.” As is your pleasure, so to you it
| ought to be.
i You say that, “at a large and respectable’
! meetingfof citizens of your county, in fa- ’
; vor of the general Bankrupt law, you were j
I appointed a committee to propound to each of;
J the candidates for Congress, the following
■question, to wit: If elected to Congress, and’
: the question should be brought up, will you vote ,
I for or against its repeal
In reply thereto, l answer, that without
doubt, if elected, and an opportunity should j
arise. 1 would vote for the repeal oi the “Gen j
| oral Bankrupt Jaw ” of the last session of Con- J
Ia reas, re mined to by you.
Tins being my answer, allow tne, without
•be labor oi an argument on my part or the
tax of i:s perusal on yours, to sum up partially
my reasons lor so doing
Fust. My opposition to such a measure
| was elicited almost cotemporaneously with
| the firt political acls of my life, by what I un
derstood to be the opinions and action of the
Republican party in regard to .t.
Secondly. This Bankrupt 13.11 assuredly,
will blight this country with an increasing
moral desolation, already rendered fearful by
the influence of a credit system, to which,
the evils involved in this measure are but the
first chapter in the sequel. These evil-, must
be Vifitcd on the heads of those who receive
the proffered Lenefi.s of the act, as well as of
these v ho must rest under i.s iiill.ctions.
I hi idly. Or those who are expressly provi
ded for by the bill, more than half will be uis
;q pointed in the benefits proffered by it.— j ;
i'nese will prove to be the most worthy ob
jects ol its favor.
! Fourthly, ‘.'lie act, tin its provisions, is a
j gross perversion of justice, and is nothing
short of robbery by form of law, without
constitutional grant. It takes from hundreds
ihe r property without their consent and gives
it to others. It leaves minors and wards
destitute in spite of the care and prudence of
testators, guardians and trustees. It takes
money from the pockets of the security to pay
the debts of the principal,without hope of res
ituti.o'.i.
Fifthly. It i.; unequal In its operations, and
‘partial in its effects, it favors the dealer in
thousands, and withholds i’s benefits from
those who deal in hundreds.
Sixthly. It is calculated to deedie and mis
lead the mass of our citizens, who are unob
servant of its effects, whilst it opens the doer
to the wary, the cautious and designing tra •
der to take advantage of the unsuspecting and
confiding rnan from the country.
These, gentlemen, are some of the reasons
which influence my opinions. And whilst 1
find an express grant of power to Congress to
pass a Bankrupt Law, I deny that that au
thority was ever intended to apply to existing
contracts. Our Constitution was made to
gurfreinte life, liberty and property. If your
property exists in debts duetto you, and mine
in land and negroes, that is no reason or au
thority for Congress to destroy or abolish your
right of property that does not apply to the
abolition of mine. If you are surety for me,
j on a noie or bond, there is no power in Con
i gresa to take your property to pay the debt,
and free mins, which would not also authorise
Congress to remove you from your lands, and
place me in possession.
Hoping that the foregoing will have fully
satisfied you, I subscribe myself
Youi olntlunt servant,

Fo the politeness of officers of the Garri
son we are indebted fur the ldllowmg particu
lars of Capt. Wade's admirable exped.tiou :
Ab rut the 12 hos the mouth, Captain \V.
D. A. Wade, 2d Artillery, commanded at Fort
Lauderdale, (on the Atlantic coast, 30 miles
Nor.li of Key 11 scayne,) caught an Indian
fishing on the beach, who undertook to conduct
, hmi to a village. Setting out with 60 men, he
came to the place, where he shot 8, and cap
tured 20. One of the captured informed him
th it he had been a great friend of Sam Jones,
j but lately had quarreied, and that he would
guide to another village 30 miles distant.--
Lathis village they went, where they captur
ed 37, without receiving a shot, aitfiough Lie
Indians had thirteen loaded rifi *s.
The friendly Indian now offered tn bring in
more if Capt. Wade would permit him to go
after them. Permission was given, and be
returned with 4 men and two boys. As the
i party returned to the Post, another Indian
; came up and surrendered himself.
L euts. Wvse, Rankin, Thomas, and Chur
chill, had gone out with 70 men, guided by
th s friendly Indian ; but not knowing where
Sam Jones is, they expect but little success.
Sam is supposed to be a few days march south
of Lake Okechobee, with a few warriors, and
on the return of his party, Major Childs in
tends proceeding with boats into the Ever
glades to hunt him out. “How old is old
\Vade ?” was the enquiry made at Black
Creek some years ago at a convivial party,
where “old Wade” was present. “I can’t
tell,” replied a cadet from West Point, “but
I remember he was a first Lieutenant of the
3d Artillery at Bradd-ick’ $ Defeat .”
The News in noticing Cap\ Wade’s ope
rations, remarks, Capt. Wade and L eut.
Thomas deserve and will receive, the whole
credit of this important service, which will go
far toward ending the war.
We understand that Lieut. Wyse, with se
venty men had started on a scout in pursuit
| of Sam Jmes, accompanied by Lieuts. Bhover,
; Rankin, and Churchill. We heartily wish
• them success.
Tiie scout from Fort Dallas, commanded

THE MISSISSIPPI BONDS.
The writer of ihe He.aid’s money article
sums up, with much brevity, from authentic
documents, ibe history of the frauds commit
ted in regard to the Mississippi bonds, ti will
be see n that both the seller and buyer violated
ilie express injunction ul'the authority under
which the one undertook to sell, and the other
to buy—The Bank of the U. S. was the pur
chaser, and bv ils charter it is expressly pro
hibited limn dealing in such bonds or stocks.
I'lie Stale commissioners who negotiated the
sale noi only violated the law prescribing the
terms on which acme they were authorized
to seil, but also set at nought the constitution
ol ihe Slate in accomplishing the object.—
N; idier of the parties to the pretended con
tract were compel nt to make it. and in ma
king it frauds were committed sufficient of
themselves to annul it. as between individu
als.
The history of the transaction will be
found in the following;
“ I'iiese bonds were created for the estab
iishnieni of the .Mississippi Union Bank.—
The charter of the Mississippi Union Bank
prescribes not only ihe substance, but the
limn of the bonds, and provides that they
shall be in sums of two thousand dollars each,
4 which sum the said State of Mississippi
promises to pay in current lank notes of the
Udited States’ to ihe< rdei of the Bank, with
interest at ihe rate of 5 per ceiv. per annum,
payable half yearly, at the place named in the
endorsement of ihe bonds. The act further
provides that said bonds shall not lie sold un
der l!**.:r par value. The bonds so created
were delivered to the c >mmis-ioners, J. C.
Wilkins, K. C. Wilkinson, and W. M. Pine
ard, Esqrs. Those gentlemen in May, 183S,
applied to Nicholas Biddle for a sale of the
bonds. A contract was finally entered into
by which Mr. Biddle bought the bonds in bis
own name, endorsed by the Bank in order to
evade the law which forbids the Bank to buy
stoek. Mr. B-(Vile purchased the bonds on
time, and the payment was •altered from the
current m iney of the United States as pre
scribed by the law to the currency ol Great
Britain. Toe B ink received in pari pavryer.t
the post notes ofi the U. S. Bank. Gov.
McNutt refused to acknowledge this contract
and cautioned the public by proclamation,
not to purchase the remaining .*‘5,000,000 -
The Legislature made no provision for the j
payment of the interest, and the United j
•States Bank, having a- large pari ofi the bonds j
on band, advanced the interest abroad to sus- |
lain the credit ofi the State, rep'esefiting that ;
the State lead paid. When the United States j
Bank failed she was unable to go on paying, j
and then Hope & Cos. of Amsterdam ad-j
dressed a letter to Governor McNutt, calling
j his attention to the fact. In the answer of
j Governoor McNutt, datedj.July, 1841, be goes
at length in the reasons lor not paying, sum
ming up as follows:
1 lie state therefore denies all obligation to i
pay the bonds held in trust by you* fox the j
following reasons:
Ist. The bonds were sold on a credit.
2d. The currency in which the bonds were j
made payable, was changed from current mo j
uey of the United- States to pounds sterling
of Great Britain, at the rate of lour shillings j
and sixpence to the dollar.
3J. The contract of sale was fraudulent, j
4th, The Bank of the United States Was
not authorised to make the purchase.
5: li. The bonds were sold at less than their
par value in violation of the charter of the ;
bank.
The money paid for these bonds did not j
come into the state treasury. The officers ■
of the government had no control over itsdis- i
liursements. The bonds were disposed of
in August, 1833, by collusion and fraud, in
violation of the constitution a-nd* laws of this
state. The Mississippi Union Bank, and the
Bink of tlio United States, were parties to
this unlawful transaction, 4ou have the en
■dorsement of both these institutions, and to
thenVyou must look for payment. This state
never will pay the five millions of dollars of
state bonds issued in June, ISAS, or any por
| tion of the interest due or to become due there
on-
Piie los.-es sustained by the contracts were
j estimated as follows:
Interest on five million state bonds
from Till June, 13-38, to Ist Nov.
1833. $106,000
Interest on 4,000,000, two months, 33,333
Interest on 3,000,tRK), two months, 21,999
I Interest oil 2.000,000, two months, 13,693
Interest on 1,000,000, two months, 8.333
Difference between five millions
dollars, principal of state bonds,
in current money of the United
States and sterling money of
Great Britain at f mr shiliings and
sixpence to the dollar, 478,750
Diilerence of interest on 8125,000
of state bonds, payable in twelve
years between current money of
tlie United States, and pounds
sterling of Great Britain, at four
shillings and six pence-to the dol
lar. 60,525
.Difference of interest on 82,750,-
(400 of state bonds payable in
twentv years, between current
money o. the Unite! S’ates and
pounds sterling of Great Britain,
at four shillings and six pence to
the dollar, 353,058
1,033,785
“ Th° bondholders have the endorsement
of the United States Bank, and the Union
Bank. The committee of the United States
Bank states that Biddle had no authority to
make the contract. The Union Bank has
made an assignment of all its property, and
notified all claimants upon the bank to fi e
their claims within eight months from the as
signment, all such to be preferred creditors.
I‘he bank is utterly insolvent, and cannot
pay its liabilities independent of its endorse
ment. Its money is selling at thirty cents
on the dollar. Governor McNutt went to the
pjopie with the question of paying or not pav
ing on the ground he assumed, and the result
is a decision in his favor. This is the state
of affairs in Mississippi.”

FROM MILLEDGEVILLE.
Times Office, Dec. 9—ll o'clwlt, a. m.
O’ By the mail of this morning,.we-have re
ceived the following letter from our corres
pondent which gives, among other things*the
news of the final rejection, in the Senate,
of Mr. Howard’s bill, the passage of which
has been looked for with much anxiety by
many of our citizens:
MILI.EDGEVir.LE, Pec. 6. 1841.
I regret to inform you that the bill, known
as Howard’s substitute, ei larging the juris
diction of Justices of the Peace so far as Bank
notes were concerned, and providing a sum
mary remedy in the collection of the same, has
been finally lost in the Senate. This b'll,
having previously passed the 11 >use. received
also, a day or two since, the sanction of the
Senate, with some amendments/ which I have
already communicated to you. A reconside
ration wassubsequentiv moved and obtained—
and, on to day, the bill came up for final dispo
sition. On a motion to lay on the table for
the balance or the session, it was lost by the
casting vote of the President—and on the
question shall the biff pass, it was rejected by
a majority of five votes.
The b. 11 authorising a loan of two hundred
thousand dollars to the Monroe Railroad and
Banking Company was lost in the House,
last week, by a majority of two votes. A re
consideration was moved and obtained ; and
to-day the bill was rejected by a vote of 112
to 53.
The tax bill has passed the Senate as it
c.arne from the House, throwing aside ihe
amendments, mentioned in my last, which
taxed carriages one dollar on every hundred
dollars of their value—jewelry worn by the
person one dollar on every hundred dollars
worth—gold and silver plate two dollars on
every hundred dollars worth—and thirty one
and a quarter cents on every hundred dollars
of the capital stock of Banks. The bill, as it
| stands, if I do not mistake its provisions, redu-
Ices the taxes 29 per cent, except on Bank
j stock, and money employed in shaving.
The report ofi the committee reeommeli'd
! ing an appropriation for the benefit of James
: Kivlin as Military Storekeeper at Columbus-,
j has beeiv disagreed to by the House of liep
j resentatives.
1 hope you will publish as soon as practica
; hie the report of the minority committee on
j the Centra! Bank. It will be found in the
j Federal Union of this week. It shows that
j the entire capital stock of tfie Hank, excluding
j merely a fraction, lias been .absorbed by leg
j islative appropriations, and not by distribu
tions to the people. *
The bill giving specific taxing powers to
the City Council of Columbus,, which has
passed the House, has not been taken up in
the Senate. It will, probably, pass that body.
The Legislature wild adjourn, without
doubt, on Thursday morning—at all events,
during this week.
Mr. Grieve, as one of the Committee on
the Slate of the- Republic in the House, has
expressed his individual views in a counter :
report. It exhibits more spirit than is usu
ally to be found’ in the writings of that gen
tleman, induced perhaps by the difficulties
which, just now, encompass iiis political posi- 1
tion. There are also statements in the’ report,
relative to some of the transactions of the
last Congress, which are hardly deductible
from the facts, properly interpreted.
Mir.LFDGEVILT.E, Dec. 6, 1841.
I shall send you, probably in time for your
publication next week, a transcript from the
journals of the Senate, of the proceedings of
that body on the Report and Resolutions of
the Joint Committee on the State of the Re
public. When these proceedings are spread
before your readers in a retailed form, they
will, 1 doubt not, pronounce them to be among
the most extraordinary ever enacted in a grave
and dignified assembly of legislators.
There are, I believe, nerr forty wliigs in
the Senate of Georgia. On three or four
i of the resolutions, not bearing specially on
I the political questions now dividing the coun-
I try, there were perhaps as many as thirty of
| the whig. Senators found voting, while on the
i resolutions declaring certain great measures
| as constitutional and proper, and repudiating
other measures as unwise and unauthorised
by the constitution, they, with a few excep
tions, retired from the Senate Chamber, or
declined’ to vote. The Hon. Senator from
Richmond remarked in his speech on the re
port and resolutions that they were ingenious
ly drawn, and designed or calculated to en
trap whig Senators. Now the report and r<£?
olutions plainly anu distinctly avowed one set
of principles and repudiated another set —and
jf Senators on the whig side had aay fic:i
opinions on these su’ijPcts, and were willing
to disilose them, where was the difficulty in
voting for or against the resolutions, and the
report which accompanied them 1
An eye-witness of the scene only can fully
understand the extraordinary course pursued
by whig Senators, or realise the awkward
predicament in which they found themselves,
wlren obliged by the dictates of the party,, to
decline acting in support of doctrines which
had once received the hearty assent of the j
State Rights party. These gentlanen con-j
tinued to retire and to decline voting, except
ing here and there one, until the resolution]
censuring Mr. Birrien y in express terms, fori
voting to confirm Mr. Everett as minister to j
England, introduced by the Hon. Senator,
from Muscogee, was presented for the consid-■
‘•ration of the Senate. At this point, whig!
Senators seemed to be wholly unable to mark j
out a course for themselves. They knew !
well tjjat opposition to the resolution would j
be political death at home—yet they were un
willing to sacrifice Mr. Berrien. They, there
i fore, to a man, refused to vote ; and on the
adoption of rhe resolution, the yeas were 48,
; nays, none. So the resolution passed unani-
I mo udy.
Mr. Kenan, of Baldwin, said the resolution
• did not contain the fact?—that Mr. Everett
[condemned slavery in the abstract merely
I “Very well.” said the honorable Senator
from Mu c igee, “ vote against it—if ft do not
contain the facts, you are justified in opposing
it. We, on this side of the House, are willing
to sustain the resolution as it stands. We are
willing to go to the country on the correctness
of the facts embraced in the resolution.”—
The Whig Senator from Lee said that he had
seen no evidence of the correctness of the
statements in the resolution, and could not,
ibhrefore, vote understanding!) 7 —vet he did
not hesitate to declare that, if Mr. Everett
he'd the opinions respecting slavery attribu
ted to him in the resolution, the people of
. Georgia would not approve of the course of
Mr. Berrien in voting for the formes individual
to be Minister to England'.
At this point in the discussion, the venera
ble Senator from- Gt eene, whose seat, from j
the time the report and resolutions were taken j
up to tiie moment they were disposed of, j
seemed to have been any thing but agreeable
to him—held a short conference with the Se*
nator from Baldwin, at the close of which, the
latter demanded, of the Senator from Musco
gee, the proof that Mr. Everett held certain i
opinions respecting slavery contained in his !
resolution. It was hoped in this way to avoid
a direct vote on the resolution, and Whig Se
nators would thus be enabled to extricate;
themselves from the dreadful dilemma in
which they were placed. The Senator from
Muscogee immediately tendered, Cor the in
spection of Senators, a celebrated letter writ
ten by Mr. Everett in 1839, when a candidate
for Governor of Massachusetts, which letter
produced the opposition to Mr. Everett in the
U. S. Senate. The letter passed among
Wing Senators, and as each took a hasty
glance at its contents, it fell like hot coals
from their hands—and the resolution passed
nem. con.
This Report an.d Resolutions come up to
morrow in the house, as the special order of
the day. A motion was made, to-day, by
Mr. Hull, of Clark, to Tfiy the report and reso
lutions on the table for the balance of the
session. This motion was opposed by Mr.
Wofford, of Habersham, who intimated that
the gentleman trom Clark, and some of his
political associates- in the House, had no par
ticular anxiety to meet the subject matter
contained in the report and resolutions, by a
direct vote. The motion of Mr. Hull did not,
however, prevail.
For. Daniel Webster. —ln the course of
Mr. Badger’s speech to his friends in North
Carolina, speaking of the dissolution of the
late cabinet, and the vacillations of the Presi
dent, he says:
“His conduct then, standing as it did to me,
totally without any explanation of its apparent,
deviation from manifest propriety, and without
any sufficient pledge for the future, left, in
my judgement, no alternative but immediate
resignation, unless I had been a miserable
sycophant, willing to retain office, under what
ever circumstances of degradation, for the sake
of its emoluments and power.”
We should like to. gel the 1 opinion of “the
Great Constitutional Lawyer,’’ as he is called,
upon the case presented in this paragraph.
YVliat a shocking thing it is for people-to allow
themselves to speak their nxindis so freely.—

QUARTO NEW WORED.
PROo. EU 1 Ucs lor tie louiltl VOUUlie, com
mencing January 1 16.42. Edited by Pars?
Benjamin.
During me two years which have elapsed since th<*
New World was C gjua, it lias been the tffuii of the
ecftoi lo tender i the mosl readable newspaper of the
da-’. To this end the proprietors have liberally con
tributed. Neither irotib.c nor rapt use has bttn
spared. The most popular Locks have been pur
chased. The best contributors have been engayd.
A corrosion .'cnee with the most interesting parts of
the world has be-.n cs:abli>!ieel. In short, the best
arrangements have b- 1 n made to pub ish an indepen
dent literary journal, acceptable lo all classes of.
readers. Ihe edit r can think of nothing which has
been left undone to enhance the value and lo elevutt
the character of the New World.
Its success has be*-n mosl encouraging. It will
commence the new year with a circulation ofr
i\VE.\v-i ive thousand copies, a larger number,it
is believed, than is issued of any oilier werklv paper
iu Great Britain or the United Stales. This sue—
cess is imputed chii fly to two reasons first, to its
having contained an unprecedented number of excel
rut a. tides by the most populat authors; second, to.
its having assumed md observed a most elevated
moral tone. Its columns are uncontaminated by
parly poh les, and its ample pages unsoiled by pro
bite and improper jests, vulgar allusions, oi iireli
gious sentiments ; and therefore it finds its warmest
welcome by the clmn-. sic hearth, and receives its
highest approval from that sex, whose rights it has
maintained whose delicacv it has never offended, and
whose mental and social snpuiiurity it has labored to
vindicate.
About to enter upon, a, new year, end to commence
another volume, we proceed to mention a few induce
| incuts for old triends to continue with us, and for
new ft lends to j >in their company. No change
whatsoever will be made in the manner of editing and
conducing the Now V\ oild ; but it vvi 1 receive in
ad us departments trcsluaccesaions of ability. Many
aloe w riters will gt ace our columns. Permanent ar
rangements have been made to secure the exclusive
i ciary si t vices of Dona id MacLeod, Francis
.J. Grund, and Bp a.viz Mayik. Esquires,
f Mr. Mac Leo 1, resid.-nl in London, will keep our
j readers fu lv informed of all events of interest that
(transpire in England, Scotland and Ireland. Being
:n const ,ill personal in;crcomae with the lest-knowu
i ant hots, lie will obtain from them manuscripts, proof—
- sheets and ear y copies of. the latest publications.,
j I litis shall we be enabled, as we have hitherto done,
; to give in the New.W'otUi their latest works in ad~-
j ounce qf any other newspaper in America.
;Mr. Grund, resident in Bremen, will, by a.regular*
j and copious correspondence, advise our readers of
j the social, literary and religious condition of conti*
, n -ntal Europe.
Bran 7. Mayer, (whose name we introduce with
j great pleasure as that of one of the most accotn
! pushed young men of .tir country,) resident in Mcxi—

I portion of tin Western- Hemisphere, of its tnhabi
j iants, their manners, laws and customs, and of all
; objec „ ot curiosity, whether ancient oi modern. His
j letters will be accompanied by i.htslrat.ve drawings,
[ which will be engraved and presented in our columns.
Original Artici es, by the best American,
writers will enrich our pages in the coming volume.
Among tile attrac ive features of this description, wc
have (no pleasure to announce that i arlv in January-’
will be commenced a New Novel, by an American;,
written expressly for the New World, and entitled
Abel Parsons, a Story of hie Great Fire..
It possesses a deep local interest, and will be read;
