DARIEN HERAID, ©^223^3 Tuesday Moruiiiff. April 30, 1*39. The next census is to be commenced on the Ist of June, ami completed and returned to the office of the Secretary of State iu December, 1840. By the first article of the Constitution of the United States, on acti>d enumeration of the iuhahitanta was directed to fie made Within three years after the meeting of the firat Congress, which took place on the 4th of im ihnd in every tenth year thereafter. The j tallowing are tit* results of those already taken : White* Free colored Slave, Total 1790 3,172,464 59,466 607,897 3,919.827 1800 4.301489 198,305 893,011 5.305,925 1810 5,839,004 18 i.

Under the act of the last session these will be a till greater, both to the free and slave population, and information obtained relating to agricul ture fmn*s,'6£mrnerce, manufactures, and schools, * for the purpose of exhibiting a complete view of the ftarsuits, industry, and resources of the United States. A* the, population of this country has hitherto doubled in twenty-five years, in 1646 it will probably be twenty millions, the census of 1820 falling little short of ten millions. The result of the approaching census cannot be estimated at less than from seven teen to eighteen millions. In 1837, the entire pope. Uilion, including 403,000 Indians, was estimated at over sixteen and a half millions. From New York. The Steawk.i . Gucat Western sailed on the 22d inst. at I‘2 o’clock, M , for England. On Saturday, she was crowded with ladies who took advantage of the beautiful weather to exatnine and pronounce their judgment on her goodbad condition. The trnvel lin has increased so rapidly of late, that nil the packets as well as steamers are filled, —the Cam bridge went with fifty, the Ducliesse d’Orleans with forty-eight, the Westminister full, the \Tllede Lyons has already over forty engaged, and the Siddons nearly fifty. * Nicholas Biddle. Esq., and his family, took pas sage in the Gr*ai western, for Europe. This is Me. Biddle’s second visit to Europe. Me was a traveller tw nty-five years ago—but what a change he will find now, not only in Europe but in himself. He carries with hi n a reputation that no American ever exceeded. , Anew Bank is about to l>c formed in New York, und?r the guidance of a certain Hebrew house in London. T.ie latest mwj from England states that u pause took place in the filling up of tlii capital stock, which is U> be $5,003,009, in fipwwquenci of the boundary news. Oil the return of th? Great W astern, the subscriptions will, without doubt, make progress, and a branch of the institution be shortly establish din tliai city. To ■ head of the instituion there, it is said, will be .Ifir. Solomons I. Josephs, (an excellent choice,) who was formerly of the firm of J. L. A S I. Josephs, and who is relutod by marriage to the Cohen* of Baltimore, and to the Solomons of London, all of whom are interested in the new con e.ern. The business of the institution will be entire ly confined to st-rling exchange, mid will go into operation under the general banking law of that state, and thus become a great instrument by which to regulule the balance between the two countries. — No person in Wall street is better acquainted with the nature and course of the exchange o|>era; ions of this country than the gentl-man w? have named, who may he placed at the head of this institution. The rise of cotton on the other side will place the • banks of the south in a very strong position. After bank hours on Saturday, Wall slreet was thrown into a state of excitement to such an extent as to suspend proceedings at the second board. It ap peared that a certain operator had purchased stocks to the amount of thirty thousand dollars, fur which be gave his check, to be made good; he th-n disposed of the stocks, and having obtain-d the money, lost it, and thereby was prevented from meeting bis checks. There was ad ‘Structive fire in Albany on Satur day night. It broke out in the tavern at the corner of South Pearl and Lydrus streets, and extended with great rapidity, destroying about 30or 35 build ings, among them,th’ new \1 Shodist Church. Xois 8100,000 —insurance S3O or 835,000. Win. Green was convicted nt the lale session of the Superior Court of Glynn Cos. of harbor ing a slave, and sentenced to be imprisoned in the jail of Me Intosh County till the 2d Dec. By refering to an advertisement in anoth er column, it will be perceived that Green has made his escape, and the Sheriff of Glynn Cos. hasoffered a reward for him. The Albany Argus charges upon Governor Se ward, that he “sits'in the Executive Chandler cross legged, and wears no straps to his pantaloons Another Soi.dier op the Revomtion Gone ! We have this day the melancholy duty of announc ing the death of General StuiEL Smith, which took place, suddenly and with liule previous illness, at his residence in Baltimore on the 93.1 inst. The c-rcu stances attending the death of General Smith were somewhat singular. He had been riding out in his carriage, in the afternoon, and on returning to his residence, laid himself down on a sofa, as if fati gued, and for repose. The servant in attendance left him thus, and returning after a few minutes ab sence, found the form of the aged veteran there, but life was extinct. Thus closed in peace and quiet a 1 >ng and eventful life, of rare public Usefulness - General Smith was born in Lancaster county, Pa. but had resided upwards of 70 years in Baltimore and was at the time ol’ his death, about 87 years of age. At the recent session of the Supreme Court held in Brunwick, Francis Eugene Bond, Esq. of Darien, was admitted to practice as an Attorney at Law in tiie sev eral Courts of this State. tV The people of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, are carrying out the law of 1831, which ennets that I no free negro ahull immigrate to or settle in thnl j State ; and no free negro or free mulatto belonging to any other stale, district or territory, shall come into that slate, and therein remain for the space of ten su.-eessive days, whether such free negro or mu latto imrnds settling in that state or not, under the penalty of fifty dollars for each and every week he or she shall remain in the state ; one half to go to the informer and the other half to the county, and on re fusal or inability to pay said fines shall be committed to jail and -add at public sale by the sheriff as a slave for life. Und r this severe enactment, (which has hertlo forebeen permitted to remain n dead letter on their ! sta.ute books,) n free negro was sold a few days ago ] i by the Sheriff of Queen Anne's county, for the sum of | $550, and immediately afterward was shipped for the south. The Fayettevelle North Carolina Observer of the ‘ 27th tilt states that a wagon, from Davidson county, ‘ brought to that place on the previous week, upwards of a ton weigh of native silver ore, from the ll’nsh ington mine of A King A Cos. The ship Gen. Pnrkhill, has sailed from St Marks, Florida, for Liverpool, with 1933 lades of cotton.— This is the third vessel this season—making alto gether 5000 bales, chiefly owned by Mr. R. H. Barry, Despite the Indian murders and destruction of her | plantations. Florida is doing wonders. An Important Discovert.— An advertisement J appears in several daily papers of the North, which ! is calculated to excite considerable interest. We ‘ Allude to that in which Mr. Evans, of Pittsburg, offers 5,000 to any individual who may succeed in I exploding a steam boiler, to which the new appara tus, the invention of Mr. A., may be attached. The j advertisement is accompanied with strong tostimo- j nia!s from gentlemen thoroughly acquainted with the subject, and the invention appears to be the best thing of the kind ever submitted to public considera tion. If wholly adequate to the object in view, its usefulness and importance cannot be over rated Already thousands of lives have been lost by steam boat explosions of various kinds, and the individual will indeed prove himself a benefactor to mankind, who shall sucaeed in the production of an effectual preventive to such disasters. COMMERCIAL CONVENTION. This body which met in Charleston on the 15th inst. udj tinted on Thursday last. The Hon. Anbury llui.l of Georgia, whs appoin ted President of the Convention, supported by Chancelor Wm. Harper of South Carolina, Mitchel King of North Carolina, Spencer Jar n ag u in of Tennessee, E. H amilton of Geo. Charles T. Pollard of Alabama, and Wm. J. Mills of Florida. An able and important Re port, and various Resolutions were adopted. Among them we have only time at present to notice the following: Resolved, That this Convention recom mehtl to the people of the Southern and South- Western Slates, to appoint Delegates to meet in Convention at A/acon, in the Stale of Geor gia, oil the tirst Monday in May, 481)—to eou t .me to present the interests and objects of tins Convention before the people—and that separate and distinct Committees for each State and Territory represented, be appointed by the President of this Convention, whose duty it shall be to take all proper measures i™ secure a full representation from every pars , ol those Slates—and whose duty it shall also T lie to attend the meeting of the Legislatures of their respective Slates, for the purpose of promoting by all proper and honorable means j tiie objects of this Convention. Resolved, That iu tin: opinion of this Con vention, the establishment of a Southern Re view, under the direction of able and learned men, to be faithfully devoted to the promotion of science and literature, and also to the de fence of the institutions, the vindication of the rights and the developement of the resources ol the Slave-holding .States, is nil object of the deepest interest, ami one which should com mand the cordial co-operation and support of every citizen of these Stales; and that a Com mittee of Nine be appointed to carry the ob ject of this resolution into effect. Resolved, That this Convention earnestly recommend to the respective Legislatures of the Southern and South-Western Stales, so to ( frame their Legislation as to remove any une qual burden from trade and commerce, and tiie accumulation of commercial capital with in their respective Territories. The Convention feasted luxuriantly on the Hospitality of Charleston. The dinner, in which it participated, was a “feast of reason, and a flow of soul.” The following was the third regular sentiment: Georgia—She boasts a people unsurpassed in enterprise and chivalry. South Carolina regards her as a noble “partner of her toils, her feelings and her fame.” , THE BOUNDARY QUESTION. Wc arc enabled to slate, on what we believe I to be good authority, that such instructions have been transmitted toiler Britanic Majesty’s ministers at Washington, by the Great West ern, as will obviate the necessity of sending a special minister to London. The seat of ne gociations for the final adjustmentof the boun dary question is transferred from London to Washington ; and those negociations will be pressed to a definitive conclusion. As bearing on this matter we give two Lon don articles of considerable interests. The first is from the London Chronicle—the organ of tiie cabinet —the second from the Observer, which is understood to convey the opinions and sentiments of Lord Palmerston, the Secre tary for foreign affairs. From the London Y/oining Chronicle. The American Boundary Question. — We have seen letters from Intelligent and well-in formed persons in North America, and a peru sal ofthem tends to strengthen our belief that the proceedings in the state of Maine will not lead to any interruption of the pacific relations between this county and the United States. No doubt a vote of the Legislature of Maine of BOJ.OIW dollars, to equip a hostile force to pro ceed to the Aroostook, appears to wear a very threatening aspect; and were a British force of suitable magnitude to be despatched to the quarter in question, and Sir John Harver to be us bent on mischief as the Governor of Maine, it might be difficult to say where the mischief, once begun, would stop. The cutting of timber on the Aroostook takes place more or less every winter; but upon tiiis occasion it was done by persons in the employment of some American and New- Brunswick speculators.—The opportunity was too tempting to Mr. Fairfield, the Govenor of Maine, who is of the democratic party, not to be turned to account, and he has accordingly made the most of it. Fortunately, however. TH D ; ?YIC INtPOSHO OiSVi TV HERALD, for the chance of the continuance of ponce, the slate of Maine hits, wc are assured, uti money in its treasury, and thus the general govern ment will have lime to interfere before ny serious mischief can be done.—Public opinion iii the neighboring state of Massachusetts, and throughout the eastern slates, was selling in strongly against the measures which Maine hud so rashly taken, and with men possessed of property there was hut one opinion on the subject, /t was generally belivcU that the measure of Mr. Fairfield will merely have the result of embarrassing his democratic friends ai Washington; for however restless that par ly may be, no one anticipates that Mr. Van Huron will fora moment afford the least on : courage.nont to this moment. The affair may in the end be of advantage, if properly turned I to account. The government of the United-states has been placed in a situation of extreme danger by the proceedings of Govenor Fairfield, and | it must heartily wish the settlement of the boundary question, which every moment is ! thus liable to become, in the hands of firebrands I of the temper of Governor Fairfield, the means of lightning up it general comingruiimi. None know belt r iliun those who are til the head of affairs in America that vvisdou; and true policy are unavailing to stem the current of popular excitement, when stimulating events rouse the feelin sos the people. On the other hand, it must be known to our government that the disaffected in both the. Canadas will never abandon their schemes, so long as they can cherish a hope that this boundary question may lead ton rupture between tiie two coun tries. With this feeling on the part of the two governments, both deeply interested in remov ing a bone, of contention by which they may, under the force of circumstances, be driven to act in opposition to their wishes and intentions, it cannot, we should suppose, be difficult to fall on tiie means of accommodation. Wc would, therefore, press on ministers the im portance of not allowing the present favorable conjuncture to pass by without being turned to account if possible; and cannot holpbsliev tng that as both governments must be anxious for the preservation of peace, having such strong motives to wish for its continuance, there is now n fairer prospect than ever of a final settlement of this boundary question. From the Observer. In the House of Commons on Friday night. Viscount Palmerston, in answer to Sir Stratford Canning, expressed his con fidence, with reforenee to the border dis turbances between the stale of Maine and New Brunswick, that the most friendly dis position was entertained by the American government toward this country. Indeed, we have heard, from the most imqiiesliou able authority, that the tresspassers upon the disputed territory, and whose conduct lias provoked the threatened collision, are half citizens of the state of Maine itself, and half citizens of New Brunswick. It would most assuredly be absolute madness on the part of two governments such ns that of the United States and of her Majesty, allied as’ they are by so many ties of common inter est, to rush into a general war on account of a border fray in which the subject of both arc equally implicated.

The arrival of the Great Wewlern nas create?! a ►good o7*ul of Bi iisation in Wail street, and indeed in till tm: business parts of the city. Crowds appeared af tin* various Bulletin Othces to learn the news.— Tne announcement that Cotton had advanced about I 1-4(1. from the Ist to the 33.1 March, and that the market whs In a very firm state, together with the pucific character of the Gngliti.i Press, caused great relief. The general impression was that the news was favorable, and calculated to have a good effect here. The Cotton holders withdrew their lots, und would not sell ut Saturday’s prices, nor until they had time to look round. Capitalists and monied men felt much relieved. Stocks immediately went up from u half to 3 per cent., and there were very . xtensivc sales mud The Banks show a more speculative spirit, u greater buoyancy and more extensive opera tions than we have witnessed for a long time. The effect of the news will be more beneficial, particularly to cotton holders and cotton operations. Cotton had begun to drag. Exporters and consumers held off with nn impres sion that Hold is were under such heavy acceptances, that they would be fore, and into market, and that a fall would be submitted to. There whs also a diffi culty experienced by holders in obtaining advances or raising money on Cotton. That difficulty will now he removed; the rise on the other side will give, confidence to capitalists, to make advances, and will induce exporters and consumers to come into market and make their purchases, us there will be no hope of any fall here. Tim South, however, will reap the great advantage The great bulk of the crop in this country, as well as thut which has gone forward, is for Southern account. The result, therefore, will enable the South to pay their debt to the North, — which will be acceptable to all. Money was in a little better demand in Englaud, that is, Bills were discounted at 4 per cent. There has not been that panic in American securities that had been apprehend and. United States Bank had fal len off a little, and other securities were dull; but the fall that was apprehend.-d hud not been realised.— The amount of American loans has a decided influ ence on the politics of the day. There is a strong arid powerful monied interest in England opposed to any hostile measures. Private letters state, and the newspaper accounts confirm the report, that Humphrey <f* Biddle hud dis posed of their entire stock of old cotton. The man agement of this house is spoken of in the highest praise ; they have succeeded in holding this immense stock thr ugh a whole season of depression, and with a powerful combination against them, —until at last they have closed tiie sales at high prices, to the great advantage of the American owners, and to the no small benefit of our common country. The af fairs of the United States Bank particularly, us re gards it# cotton operations, arc spoken of in the lead ing money articles, greatly to the praise and com mendation of Mr. Biddle. The rate of Exchange between London and Ham burgh mad * gold 1,85 per cent, dearer at Hamburgh than in London. The premium on gold at Paris, March 20th, was 73-4 per mile, which, at the English mint price of 31 178. 10 1-24. the ounc*- for standard gold gave an exchange of 25. 34 1-2, and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25. 15, it followed that gold is 0 78 p*r ct dearer at Paris than in London. The London price of gold standard in but# ha# ad vanced to 31. 18s. per oz. and shipments of it still continue to be made. Dollars are 4s. 10 3-4d. per oz. The exportation of the precious metals from the port of London for the week ending March 15th, consist ed, according to the official returns, of 23.840 oz. of gold bars, 3291 oz. of gold coin, 137 846 oz. of silver coin, and 51,2115 oz. of silver bars. Os the gold burs, 17.411 oz. were forwarded to Hamburg, and 6,435 oz. to Rotterdam. The gold coins were thus disposed of: —2,150 oz. to Hamburg: 1000 oz to Coulogne, and 144 oz to Rio da Janeiro. The silver bars were divided be tween Calcutta and .v/odras, 26,235 oz, being sent to th” former, and 25,000 oz. to the latter place. Os the silver coin 83,000 oz. were sent to Canton, 43,136 oz. to Calcutta, and 5,700 oz, to the West Indies. A London paper states that in Holland, money has become scarce, and so much as 5 to 6 per cent, in terest is paid for loans on stocks, &c. The Bank of Amsterdam raised the rate of discount six weeks ago, from 2 1-2 percent, to 3, end has now further advanced it to 3 1-2 per eent. From all this, adds the London Journal, we may reckon upon an in creased importation of securities from that quarter, which will probably be paid for by an exportation of gold.—A'cic York Express.
