Mb. Editor :
Iu the Charleston Mercury, of the 27th
April, the editor notice* a map on the subject
of the direct trade. The citizens of Mclntosh
County, and to every other county bordering
on the Aiatamaha and Oeamulgce rivers should
take a decided and active interest in the work
described in that map. By the junction of the
Ocarnulgee with the Flint river, a highway
would be opened over which near one half the
cotton grown in the United States, might be
brought to our wharves. The present state
and condition of our town has been created,
and is supported, by the 120,000 bales of cotton,
that touch here on their way to other cities,
possessing ro greater material advantages for
tirade than exists here. If the enterprise of
our merchants, is to be confined to the for
warding and commission business, and the re
tailing of merchandise, the successful execu
tion ofKhe plan drawn on the map spoken of
by the Mercury, would greatly increase their
business: But should they aspire to be more
extensively useful in their calling, to become
the agents of a great and growing people in ex
changing their products for the products of
foreign countries, what a field for their talents
and enterprise would be open to them. There
arc works now completed and under construc
tion that connects the St. Joseph’s with Albany
on the Flint river. Other works are in a state
of forwardness that will connect the Tennessee
;md Alabama rivers with Columbus. The pro
duce of the countries to be affected by these
improvements would seek the mouth of our
river as the shortest and cheapest outlet to the
Atlantic if we are t rue to ou rsel ves. The ch icf
link iu connecting the Gulf of Mexico, and the
Tennessee river with the Aiatamaha, not yet
provided for, is a rail read from the big bend of
the Ocarnulgee to the Flint river. A survey of
a route for a rail road to connect those rivers, j
lias bccu completed at the private expense of
our worthy fellow citizen Thomas Sjiahliug,
Ksft., show ing less difficulties to be overcome ‘
and greater facilities for building a road, than
are usimlly met with. We perceive by the
Mercury, that while we have been slumbering
over our interests content with the wages of j
hired servants, others have been aroused by
the contemplation of tho wealth w hich should :
be ours; and unless active and persevering es-!
forts are made by ourselves, the very glean- :
ings now left by the wav side, on which our
fitly chiefly subsists, will be taken from us. —
The “Sam Jones” is now demonstrating the ■
possibility of shipping goods direct from \
Charleston to Macon. If we suffer others to
furnish the capital and perform the labour ‘
which should be ours, will they look with spe- j
rial attention to our interests 1
This is not said with a desire to produce bos- j
tile feelings toward Charleston. The disparity j
of wealth and power between ns forbids tho
itleaof rivalry. Charleston would much pro- ,
for to aid and assist us to build the road, than I
build it herself. I believe, we have the means j
fully in our power to construct the road. I
would suggest, that our Hank, if properly con- j
nected w ith tho work would alford efficient
aid, and insure its success, if individual enter- ‘
prise should prove insufficient. We hope the j
M crcury, will give ua further information con- j
corning that map, and the interest taken in it >
by the citizens of Charleston, and elsewhere. |
Since writing the above, J have seen the
Charleston Courier of the 29th April, and am
glad to find that that valuable paper is ulso call
ing public attention to the same subject. It
has entered more into detail, and the facts it has
stated, show the immense commercial wealth
that could be brought to our wharves. We
hope the editor of the Courier, will give more
of his attention to that subject, and aid in arous
ing us from our lethargy. A. 11.

Mr. Editor:
In the last number of the ü ßrunswick Ad
vocate” I find an editorial in relation to the
appointment of Capt. La whence*, as “Pilot for
the liar and Harbour of Brunswick.”
The Editor, it would seem, is deeply inte
rested in the finances of our city, and would
regret that the City Council should act so un
wisely as to make an appointment, which in
his estimation, is of so little importance at this
season of the year, to the interest of the city.
He seems to think that the majority erf Coun
cil had no right,during the absence of the ac
tive and intelligent mayor,to act at all, where
by, he, like Capt. Lawrence, will have nothing
to do, but to receive his neat little salary of
two hundred per annum, as Council,
and the worthy Mayor, while absent on other
business, should be pocketing one Hundred ft 1
month! Oh, Mr. Editor, this wont do, you
must not torture us, or we will tels tales out of
school.
I truly appreciate the deep and abiding inte
rest which the Editor of the Advocate, mani
fests in the affairs of our city, but cannot dis
cover the motive which could prompt him to
object to an appointment, above all others the
most important and essential to the interest of
a sea port town. I doubt not, that the Editor
is entirely sincere in this matter, and would de
rive “more pleasure to see our City Council
making arrangements to pay off the debts of the
city already created, than to learn of their mak
ing new ones, by appointing any individual to
office, with a large salary, who can for the
coming five months have no services to per
form.” But, may I ask the Editor, who will
earn his money? Capt. Lawrence, the Mayor,
or the Clerk of the Council? The former buf
fiting the billows night after night, subjected
to all kinds,of weather and hardships, the others
once in six or seven weeks, conversing around
a table from ten to fifteen minutes?
I feel truly pleased, Mr. Editorof the Heraid,
that the appointment of Capt. Lawrence, as
Pilot for the Bar and Harbor of Brunswick is
made. This gentleman is a native Georgian,
and better deserves the post than any other
man, and sincerely believe that this appoint
ment has given general satisfaction to theeiti
zens of Brunswick and had they a voice would
confirm the act by acclamation.

INDIAN NEWS.
A day or two previous of his sailing from
Fort Dallas, a party of about 20 soldiers were
gent out under command of a sergeant, to cut
steam boat wood. After the sentinels were
posted and the men commenced their work,
one of them to alarm his companions, gave a
mimic Indian yell, at the lop of his voice, when
suddenly rose up in full view, almost W'ithin
gun shot, a body of about 50 Indians. Thu
sergeant promptly formed his men, and com
menced a pursuit joined by Lieut Rdgclbs,
who on hearing the alarm, left ordors, for the
remainder of his company to follow. The In
dians moved off leisurely, preserving their dis
tance, running when the soldiers run, and
walked. Finding pursuit unavailing, the de
tachment returned.
It is supposed the Indians contemplated
surrounding the working party by surprise,
when the accidental whoop of the soldier cau
sed them to be discovered.
There is no later news front the high con
tracting parties Major Gen. Macomb and Ham
Junes; but as their is strong presurrttive evi
dence that the Indians are generally oat ®f
ammunition. Sam will probably not exact too
hard conditions.

voted wife; and woman’s greatest misery Is

From the National Intelligencer.
KomiBHY at thk Bank or tub Mktropolis. —Our
attention was painfully attracted by reading in tho
Globe of Wednesday afternoon, the folio win,:
“We umlmtaud that Ah. Urine, a Teller in the
Bank of the Metropolis, took $50,000 Trout the hank.
The suspicions-of the Cashier being awakened by
appearumes, he counted die money, and discovering
the deficit, charged the Teller, who con tensed every
thing, and pointed to the person who had it in pos
session, Mi Got drich, u clerk in one of tho Deport
ments. Mr. G. was arrested and the money recap
tured
The circumstances of this robbery, which was the
general and almost exclusive subject of conveisation
in this city during lust Wednesday, were, as far us
we have been enabled to collect them from the most
authentic sources to which we had access as follows :
Mr. PeanisG. Ormc, n Ti ller in the Bank of tho
Metropolis, very respectably connected, and inherit
ing a handsome patrimony, having not been in at
tendance at the hank at the usual hour last Tuesday
morning, and from his conduct on the previous day
in absenting himself for some time from the counter,
and appearing during the morning to he slightly in
ebriate u, suspicion was excited in the mind of Mr.
George Thomas, the cashier, that all was not right,
and his teller’s account being compared with the cash
on hand, it was quickly discovered that there was a
deficit of not less a sum than fifty thousand dollars.
Immediately on this discovery being made, it was
communicated by the i at shier to Gen. Van Ness, the
President of the Bank and the Directors. The form
tr, ‘.hough indisposed, went to the house of Mr. Urine
(who was said !*.’ be sick in bed) and obtained an
interview, in which, after stutlv* to Ah. Orme tho
deficit in his cash, the President used every argument
he could think of to induce Aft*. Orme to account for
the deficit, ami to say what had become of the money.
But all in vain, Mr. Orme persisted in denying what
had becomeof.it.
After this interview, Mr. Orme accompanied Gen.
Van Ness to the Bank, and was again closely inter
rogated by the President and gome of the Directors,
when he still persisted in denying all knowledge of
the deficit, and of the way in which the money had
been disposed of; until the Marshal of the District of
Columbia being introduced, and process having been
served for the amount of the deficit, the defaulting
clerk made a confession that he had taken the fifty
thousand dollars and given it to .Mr. A. VV. Good
rich, a clerk in the War Department. This confes
sion was made rather late on Tuesday evening. It
was then thought advisable to arrest Mr. Goodrich,
and he was soon afterwards discovered by the Depu
ty Marshal nt a Refectory, and conducted to the di
rectors’ room, where in the presence of Mv. Urine, on
being told by Gen. Van Ness that he had the $50,000
given to him by Air. Orme, and the latter having con
firmed this statement, he (Goodrich) admitted that he
hud the money, and taking a large roll of hank notes
out of his rout pocket, gave them up, saying, ‘‘there
is the money.” Having obtained the money, it was
counted by the Cashier, who found that it amounted
to the sum of forty nine thousand eight hundred dol
lars—two hundred dollars only being deficient.—
After some little conversation between the President
of the Bank and Mr. Ormc and Mr. Goodrich, in or
der to obtuiu the 2(H) dollars still deficient, the Presi
dent agreed, at the request of Mr. Goodrich,that the
Bank would dismiss all further proceedings for the
recovery of the money, Mr. Orme and Mr. Good
rich were allowed to depart.
On M ednesday, however, about noon, nn affidavit
having been made before Justice Thompson, war
rants were issued in the name of the United States
against Dennis G. Orme, and A. W. Goodrich
charging the former with feloniously taking and car
rying away the sum of $50,000, the property of the
llank of the Metropolis, and the lutter with receiving
that sum of money knowing it to have been stolen.
Both warrants were placed in the hands of H. B.
Robertson, who, in n slant time, arrested Goodrich •
Dennis G. Orrno could not be found.
After a long;omi patient investigation ofthe charge
against A. YV. Goodrich, in tho presence of the Pre
sident of I lie bank and th Cashier, who were wit-
for the United Slates, (llilt District Attorney
being also present, nnd .Mr. I. FI Bradley, being
counsel for Me. A. \V. Goodrich,) llie magistrate re
quired the accusi and to give bail in the sum of fip'J,<KK)
Jor Ids appearance at tne next Criminal Court for the
county of Washington | which bail having been
given about ten o’clock at night, Me. Goodrich was
iflicbargcd, after beingunder examination about five
hours.
It is only just to mid, that Mv. Goodrich, in the de
f nos, dmied thnt & hud received or obtained the
money .with any criminal intention; lliat, finding
(Iran l in a frolic, and crazy, as he. could be proved to
be, when under the influence of liquor, he Imd merely
kept the money until Ormc gotout of Ins frolic ; and
that he was prevented from returning the money to
ilie bank (which lie sincerely regretted, ) through tle
tear that he might do Orme some injury with Ills em
ployers, and in hope that he would speedily get right
again. Goodrich also said he had searched for Orme
during the day in Ins usual haunts, but could noi find
him.
Two or three witnesses were called, who te.stified
that Dennis G. Orme, when intoxicated, was “almost
crazy,” and excited in a most unusual and extraordi
nary manner. One of them swore he saw him on
.Monday night, somewhat intoxicated, with a large
roll of bank notes carelessly in his hut, and acting
very strangely at the time.
Since writing the preceding notice, (which we have
detailed more than usual, as well to gratify intense
public curiosity as to correct erroneous representa
tions of the cose,) we understand from good authority
that Mr. Dennis G. Orme intends to surrender to the
civil power, nnd give bail for his appearance to
answer the charge against him.

Gazette states that this gentleman is some
what distinguished ; he was formerly a mid
siiipmai’. in the United States Navy,and when
the war broke out in Greece, be left the ser
vice and repaired to London, and in company
with Lord Byron and other individuals, em
barked for Greece and entered their marine
as a Captain was in the battle of Navarino and
at the fall of Missolonglii. After the war he
travelled over Europe, and returned to this
country in 1833. In 1835 he raised a compa
ny of men in New Orleans and accompanied
them to Texas, and was engaged in the battle
of .S'ari Jacmeo as Aid to General Houston.—
Shortly after the battle he visited New Orleans
purchased a small schooner, called her the
Terrible, and with a crew of 10 men he cruis
ed in the Gulf of Mexico and laid under contri
bution all the small towns on the coast, und
captured a number of valuable prizes.
The following is copied from a silp of the
Norfolk Herald, dated “Saturday—4 I*. M.”
Fatal Duel —A meeting took piace on
Friday last, in Norfolk county, near the North
Carolina line,, between J. Seaweli Jones, Esq.
of New York, to settle by the barbarous appeal
to the duel, a point of honor, which had origi
nated between them a short time before, at Pe
tersburg. They fought; with pistols, at six
paces. At the first fire, Mr. Wilson was shot
through the body and died on the spot. His
bail grazed his adversary’s temple. This fatal
event is the more to be lamented from the cir
cumstance that the parties had iong known
and esteemed each other, and up to the mo
irient of their duel had reciprocated the most
friendly and respectful sentiments.—This is
evidence by the survivor, in the hitter agony of
his feelings and the avowal of his high appreci
ation of the worth and character of the decea
sed. Both, however, were under the infatua
tion which chains the votaries of false honor
to its bloody code, and deemed their quarrel
irreeoncileable by any other course than that
which involves a violation of the laws of God
and man! How long will reasoningmac per
mit himself to be the victim of this accursed
Moloch.

Intelligence from the interior of Mexico
states that Santa Anna received s2oo,ooofront

ration of the inhabitants of Vera Cruz to pluee
themselves under the protection of France and
of the federalists of Mexico, in ease the treaty
should not he ratified, induced Mr. Santa Anna
to sign.
Female Intrepidity.— -During the fire on
Saturday night last, the occupants of one of
the buildings in llose Alley, in tho city of Al
bany, in the hustle and confusion of saving their
little children from the devouring element,
and after being driven out by the flames, dis
covered, that one of (heir children, a hoy about
1 years oh!, remained yet asleep in the upper
part of the house—(lie mother, after hearing of
the situation of her child, rushed through the
flames and seized her sleeping boy—and no
sooner had she gained the object for which she
was ;v!*ling to risk her life, than It was discov

save that of leaping from ill” second story

Original Anecdote. —“ Holly you man
with the pail and frock,” said a British offi
cer, as ho brought his fiery stood to a stand
in front of Gov. Chittenden’s dwelling—
“can you inform me whether his honor the
Governor of Vermont resided here ?”
“lie does,” was the response ofthe man,
still wending his way to the pig sty.
“Is his honor at home?” continued the
man of the spurs.
“Most certainly,” replied the man of the
frock.
“Take my horse by the bit then, ” said
the officer ; “J have business to transact
with your master.”
Without a second bidding, the man done
as requested, and the officer alighted and
made his way up to the door ami gave the
pannel several hearty taps with the butt of
Ilia whip—for licit known, in those days
of Republican simplicity, knockers and
bells like servants, were in but little use.
The good dame of the house answered tRe
summons in person ; and having seated the
officer and ascertained his desire to see the
Governor, departed to inform her husband
of the guest’s arrival, but on ascertaining
that the officer had made a Inching post of
husband, she immediately returned and
informed him that the Governor was enga
ged in the yard, and could not well wait
upon his honor and his horse at tho same
time. The predicament of the officer cart
be better imagined than described.— Troy
