Furr. Bankinci. The Legislature of Georgia, at its Inle session passed on art, authorizing and adopting the system of free j hanking. The leading provision* of the law areas follows ;—A circulating medium, in the similitude of bank notes, in blank, to be provided by the Comptroller General, and two commissioners (to h<- elected at each session of the legislature) and to be couutersijfned, numbered, anu registered by such person or persons as the Comp- ; troller and Commissioner* shall appoint.

On failure to redeem such bills 1 or notes, on demand, at the place of busi- ? ness, during the usual hours of business, in I gold or silver coin, of the standard value of the United States, the holder is authorised to have the same protested ; and the Comp troller and Commissioners, on receiving and tilling the protest, to give notice in wri ting to the maker or makers to redeem the same and if he or they omit to do so, for tiO days after such notice, the Comptroller and Commissioners (unless satisfied of a le gal defence to such notes) to give notice i immediately in the Milledgev ille papers, ‘ that all the circulating notes issued by such j persons or associations will be redeemed i out of the trust funds in their hands, and to j apply the same in pay meat of the protested j notes# with cost of protest, and to adopt such measures for the payment of all circu lating notes of such defaulters, as w ill in their opinion, prevent loss to the holder*. !

From the Journal of Com. of Hth in.it. Lower Canada. —lt is stated that the 1- or 15 villians who crossed into Canada from Auhurg, At. a few days since, and burnt sevrral Tory houses and barns, have been demanded from the Governor of Ver mont as fugitives from justice. A\ r e hope they have, and that they will be given up, and made to suffer the penalty due to their crimes. This game of pirating upon our neighbors, has been carried far enough and a little too far. Neither Canada nor Great Britain can bear it much longer. The American people would not have borne it so long. If vve want war, the liest way , is to declare it at once ; and not to foment or permit it to be fomented in this sneaking underhanded manner, fit only for vagabones and cut throats. Let it be understood that any individuals who, passing from our ter ritory'. shall commit crimes within her Ma jestv's dominions, will be ferreted out if they return, and given up to the British au thorities for punishment.—and we ween the i “patriot” operations w ill henceforth be ve- Irv much curtailed in their proportions, j The cruelty of the Albttrg invaders towards defenceless women and children was hor- j J rihlr. They ought to he punished for this, ; independent of their arts of arson. A man that will drive women and children Imre- ; I foot into the street, in the depth of winter. ! 1 far from any other dwelling, is unfit to live i in decent society, and the sooner he is sent j * to Botany Bay, the better. Tkxa* as she is.— A correspotiit-nt of the New York Star ha* communicate*: some very interesting statistical information iweeriimg ! the present condition of Texas. The grand staple of the country. •* of the Southern States, is Cotton, for which the soil in every part of the territory is admirably adapted. The cotton is of a superior quality, j and usually command* a higher price ,u New Orleans than that of Louisiana. Sine* :h_, re cent difficulties, corn has proved a mor* lucra tive crop, and has in some measure dh rted I | the attention of planters from the rullitdHon j of cotton. -* The next important produce of Texas is'.he j sugar cane. Little has as yet been done in live j 1 cultivation of the cane, but the experiment* which have been made lead the writer tobt ; iieve that, eventually, Texas will be no mean competitor of the West Indie* in the prodtic j turn of this article. All kinds of small grain yield bounteously, | especially in the Northern part on what is call ed the rolling land. Tobacco may be grown j many part of the country, superior in quality and quantity to that of any of the states; and on the Gulf it is not inferior to Havana or Principe. Indigo is indigenous, and it* growth is exuberant in ail directions. The soil is well adapted to the growth of hemp and flax, and the writer is of opinion that some of the most profitable returns will be in these crops. Among the minerals are coal, iron, copper, lead and graphite ; and it is the opinion of some I that in the San Sabu hills there are silver mutes, formerly worked by the old Spaniard*, j and that the old fort for the protection of the workmen, still remains. Sait and nitre from the evaporation of the salt spring* and lakes, ! w hich arc numerous, also add their quota. From such an abundance, of the raw mate j rial, the writer very naturally concludes that ! Texas will become both a commercial and a | manufacturing nation. TO devi lope the resources of the country t and give value to its products, the government hits dcvfetetl an extensive system of interna! improvement. Among the companies orga nised for carrying out the system is the “Tex us Hail Hoad, Navigation-and Banking Compa ny.” This company propose* to connect ihe waters of the Rio Grande and Sabina by means of interna! navigation and rail roads, and ha* baking privileges with a capital of A3.tXM.UOI), required to be paid into the Treasury of Texas in silver, it i* said, lues been already paid, and the Bank is in operation. Another improvement i* under the charge of the ‘Brazos and Galveston Hail Itoad Com jin ny “—another under that of ihe “Colorado Na ! vigution Company” ami by aetof the Iwgisla ■ lure “the rivers Attoyac and Nrehos” are to be made navigable. Other improvements are in progress. The Government i* modelled after our own. The President was first chosen for two year* i but the succeeding terms have been extended ito three years. He is inelligible during the j next term. Th- members of tin House of Re ! prowniutives are elected annually. The following extract slum * the compensa tion of the officers of the -Civic List.” “President, with house furnished, DIO,DUO Vice President, 3,(IOt) Attorney General, 3,000 Post Master General, 2,000 Commissioner General of the luind Office, §SOOO Treasurer, £>2300 Auditor, £>“3300 Secretaries of the Navy, Army, State and Treasury, S33Uoearh I Chief Justice, £SOOO Associate Judges, £3OOO each Members of Congress, S3 per diem Speaker of the House, £7 “ President jiro tern, of the Se asite, w hile acting a* such, £7 “ Mileage for Members of Congress for every 25 miles going and coming, £5 Foreign Ministers, for outfit, £4500 Salary per annum, £3OOO Consuls, perquisites.” The trade of Texas employs several steam boats permanently on the Brazos, and two or three on the Trinity. Between her coast and New Orleans there are two steam shijis, and her coasting trade and that to the United States, employs about forty or fifty vessels, mostly schooners and brigs, of small draft. Contrary to opinions generally entertained, the writer says the “Society of Texas is made up of a great deal of good, and little radically bad.” There are in the country thirty minis ters of the gospel; —five or six newspapers, and day and Sunday schools have been esta -1 hitshed.
