PA It IJJ TV” HERALD. Tuesday August 6, 1§!10 Our Country—We intend from time to time to devote a considerable portion of our columns to the interests of trade, com mere*, manufactures and agri culture. lu so doing, we shall he able to spread be fore our readers a large amount of valuable informa tion—to introduce them to an abundant field of enter prise —where industry may foci assured of an ample Toward, and where th? harvest is always provided for the hands of the reaper. Before weproce.'d in our cheering task, however it wilt not be amiss to revert back to the days immediat ely subsequent to our glorious revolution, in order that by briefly contrasting the state of the country at that tint**, with our national resources in the pretent day, to present a proud, a triumphant proof of the power of free and Republican Institutions, to foster, encourage and mature the science, the wealth, the knowledge and the civilization of mankind. Thus, W'e find that in 1790, our population was under four millions. It is now at least Seventeen Millions 1 In 1790, our exports to ull the world amounted to only *30,205,156, whereas in 1837, notwithstanding the panic, suspension of specie payments and fall in the price of cotton fro nan average of 19 cents to 11 we exported products and manufactures, to the value of *117,419,376! No less than 10 659 vessels are en gaged in our foreign trad, which doubtless employ 100,000 men and boys. But it is needless to pursue the subject. Even the most sceptical and superficial will at a glance pere nve, that in little more than fifty years, this country had advanced in the arts, sciences, power and influence in a ratio equal to the growth of many centuries, as developed by any other people, either in ancient or modern times. The philosopher and historian, in contrasting the two periods to which wc have alluded, will bail the onward and upward progress of our country, as a happy event in the an nals of the world, a maguificient proof of the expansi ve and productive character of rational freedom, and a noble monument of the capacity of enlightened man for the important trust of s lf-governmcnt. Narrow must be the mind, cold the heart, and la mentably deficient the reasoning power, of those men ; who do not look forward with a joyful certainly of their country’s future greatness.—As yet we are only in the juvenesccnce of our growth, in the morning of our existence as a nation. Our powers arc only in part developed. The elements of our strength are but discovered. The creative hand of American : genius had but begun to mould and fashion them into j form and order. The enterprize of our people, al- ! though it hath advanced with the stride and force of a giant, is yet unknown in its ext nt, oven to thrni tHves. The earth U but now unfolding h' i r bidden secrets arwl treasures; our mines discovered l*y wh ence and explored by industry, promts*’ to yield so large a supply of coal and metals, that the demand of of oil the nations of the earth for ages yet to come, would not exhaust them. The first cotton plant was put in the ground in 17>S7 it now yield >$109,000,000; with imm uise regions of cotton land yet in a virgin state. Our iron manufactures can scarcely be said to have more than commenced, although Pittsburg i contain4*9o,ooo souls. We have yet our rail-road iron, most of our cutlery, j and a thousand other things to make at home, which we now import from abroad. Our cotton manufac tories exhibit ttgr*at yearly increase; and the culti vation of morns mtillicaiUis , wijili the raising of silk, promises a resource which will erjobi j us to rival In dia, China, France and Italy, ax Tportersof Ac raw material. The patriot, then, and lover of the country, has every reason to rejoice in the bright and glorious prospects of her unfolding riches, her influence and her greatness yet to come; and if he feel n throb of regret, it is only that the shortness of the life of man will not allow him to behold the high position of this Republic among the nations of the earth, in the days that are in the womb of time. To secure these bles sings, we have only to cherish that principle and practice of rational liberty, which infers a perfect political equality, the supremacy of the laws of our own choice, good order and good government. Let us endeavor also, to promote national and general education. ‘ Knowledge is power.” By knowledge, therefore, men are rendered capable ofinstituling, and worthy of maintaining an enduring system of self control, both nationally and individually; while the intellectual effulgence of education will diffuse the lights of reason, philosophy, literature and science amongst our fellow citizens and their families, and improve the morality, virtue and religion of future generations, through all time to coins. The Foreign News.—The news from Eu rope which we give in another column, is. in a commercial point of view, of the most irnpor- i tant character that wc have received from England since the spring of 1837. The fall of Cotton, equal to $7,50 to $lO per hale—the in creased restrictions of the Bank of England, will produce failures unpreceiented through out the land, unless? there are elements in this country capable of organization, strong enough to ward off the blow. To meet the hostile measures of the Bank iff England, what is to be done? Is there any clement in this country that can be wielded so as to prevent the blow from crushing our com mercial interest? Is there any mode oforgani zing an American element capable of with standing the English element ? Are there any financiers and capitalists capable ofdevi sing and daring such a movement ? Wc believe there are —we believe there ex ists in our great staple Colton —the real specie of America, —a power capable of warding off or mitigating this crisis. Since the above has been in type we have later ac counts from Europe. The British CXceen arrived at New York on Sunday the 28th ult. By her ac counts of a fourth decline in Cotton have been re ceived. For some time past the “Courier and Enquirer,” that Bankrupt agent of every nefarious project, has bean recomnjendiag an export of specie, for the pur pose of setting the Bank of England on her legs; and the leading capitalists and brokers of New York, have Ween draining the banks of their specie, at first cov ertly and clandestinely, now openly and impudently. Already about SI ,500,000 in specie have been secret ly exported to England, and preparations andarrange meats are made to send by the Great Wes'-em, about $1,000,000, and probably by the British Quern totin’ I extern of *1,000,000 more. How much is centum i plated by those who have the {tower of draining the hanks, we know not; but we should not be surprised to see them only stop at *5,000,000 before all their views are completed. This state of things certainly demands reform, and the sooner the better. The people have been too long and too successfully huinbuged. Tub Crisis—Anotukr Suspension or Specie Pay ments.—From the developments made during the lus*t three or four w ks, we have every reason to be lieve that another suspension of specie payments, par tially if not generally, will he forced upon the banks by the speculators, brokers and every oilier species of rogue who move at Urge around the country, not yet w itliiu the precincts of the state prison and peni tentiary. lu this state of things, we cal! upon the honest, economical, ready-money men, of moderate means ami sound principles, to unite against the villainy and •peculation of the present day—to combine their in terests, opinions, ami feelings—to join the honest and well conducted hanks that will continue to pay their hills in specie—to aid every movement that will low er prices and diminish roguery—and to preserve those seeds of virtue and morality that will keep the country from bring plunged into a second disgraceful suspend on.—(New York Paper. The Cotton Crop in Mclntosh County. — ; Nothing can be more gratifying to our Citizens ! generally than to learn that the crops of the i present year arc abundant in all sections of the country. The cotton crops in this county I looks very promising, mid vve are told has not been better for many years. A few days ago we were presented with some grown on the plantation of our friend Mr. John lluthion, of a beautiful texture. Ilis crop is quite abund ant, and so far advanced, that he intends to commence gathering it the present week. The Planters always have our best wishes for their prosperity—for when they have abundance, no body compiling of hard times. Music has charms to sooth a savage , TV) break a rock , or split a cabbage.” Old Song. Our town has been all life for the past week. Dull times have been forgotten, or absorbed with the enchanting notes wafted upon every breeze, by a band of musicians who have so journed here for the past week. Night after night have we been roused from the arms of old Morph us, by serenading parties, who not con-1 tent with their labours in town, have visited the Ridge. A music master, at this time, could find ample encouragement, and we ask our brethern of the press to pass this notice round. We want something to drive away dull care. The Ciierokees. —The Natches Free Tra der of the 2d inst. states that Eliza Boudinot has been murdered, as well as John Ridge and Major Ridge. It says there were tlircc par ties among the Cherokees, and that their dif ferences related |><m to .... sion and removal, and partly to questions of internal government. One of the three par lies killed the above mentioned chiefs and head men. Ross was at the head of about 1000 in<*n lie was offered admittance into the fort by Gen. Arbuckle, but declined unless his whole party was included, which was refused. Boudinot, as well as John Ridge, was educa ted at the Mission School at Cornwall, Conn, lie was named after the late Governor Boudi not, of New Jersey, arid inherited a large por tion of his benevolence and pitffy. It is melan cholly to think that so bright an ornament of the church and of society, has fallen a victim to assassination. Like the two Ridges, Boudi not was in favor of the Treaty of removal, but not till he found it wri# impossible for his nation to remain in Georgia. A Severe Loss*—Stout’s beautiful statue of England’s beautiful (juceti is no more. Yes terday morning it was conveyed to the sehr. Bcnj. Iliglow, F. Wells, master, bound for Boston, to be taken to Boston for exhibition, and w hile the hands were in the act of hoisting her Highness on board with a takle, the ma chine gave way, and h'-r inanimate Majesty tumbled to the bottom of the hold, and broke into a dozen pieces. Her royal countinance, bust, limbs, etc., were battered and scattered in fragments, a total wreck.—The statue was valued at $3,)09, and will prove a serious loss to Mr. Stout, should the law not award him i compensation at the hands of the master or I owners of the schooner, through the negli gence of whose agents the disaster happened. The Rev. W.\i. V. Thicker, Minister of the Unitarian Church, at Savannah, died lately on board j the b, :; Savannah, on his way to New York. The Army and Navy Chronicle says: “The Court of Inquiry in the case of Com. Elliott, lias adjourned ; but from the mass of testimo ny to be examined by the revising power, it will be some time before the opinion is made known if indeed it be made known at all, with out a call from Congress, or its being such as to require a court martial.” The same paper has the following: “By ref erence to our Navy head, it will be seen that Leut. Edwin W. Moore lias resigned his com mission in the U. S. Navy, consequently there can be no longer any doubt of his having ac cepted the command of the Texian Navy.” Bread Stuffs. —The Pittsburg Gazette of Monday afternoon states that flour wasselling there on that day at $3 1-2 per bbl. In some parts of Ohio, it is added, wheat had fallen within three or four weeks past from $1 1-2 down to 75 cents per bushel. Al Louisville, it will tg seen wheat was selling at 75 cts: but it was expected to fall to 62 1-2 cts. The cer tantv of abundant crops has occasioned this great decline in ps iccs. In the Baltimore market, new wheat con tinues to come in very sparingly. . The sup plies do not yet equal the demand, and com mon to best reds command $1 20 to 1 30 per bushel. The stock of Flour of all descriptions in market, is considerably under 10.09) bar rels. City Mills held at $6 50; Howard st., $5 87 1-4. TH.XJj POWJVTTT JHERAJLJO* For the Herald. REDUCTION. It will be generally conceded that from the re pented attempts to mhicetho General Assembly, that reduction is a paramount object with the great mass of the people. They feel the sensible increase of the expense without the corresponding benefit of legisla tion; —and unless some plan con be devised to check the growing evil, that the system will overthrow the government. It is not the expense alone of which the people complain—onerous as that is in the body politic, it might he endured—hut every daysexjieri ence proves, that large bodies are not the best adapt ed for the despatch of busin ‘ss, or proof ugainst the arts of corruption. On the contrary, the intrigue which numbers engender retards the one, and pro motes the other—and this in the nature of things. In proportion as responsibility is diffused in the same proportion is its morul influence on the netionsof men lessened—and hence wc find in the proceedings of ull large bodies so little unity of action. Each indivi dual legislates for himself and to promote sonic fa vorite object of his immediate constituents, combine with others equally intent in forwarding their local interests, and these combinations lend to whnt is called the log rolling system, so degrading and so injurious to the public welfare. The best remedy to this defective and corrupting Legislation is reduction. By reducing the number you increase responsibility, and multiply th** chances of improvement. What would be considered degra ding in an individual, to do, would hardly be consid ered less so in a small public body, and the sense of shame, so powerful in restraining vice, it is hoped would have, its influence in preventing corruption. If comparisons were not invidious, we could illus trate the position by instituting a parallel between the old, and the present Congress of the United States, showing the immense difference of public virtue in the former over the. latter, and tracing step by step the degeneracy to its true cause—to wit, the profligacy of numbers. For the Herald THERMO ME TER REGISTER. Statement' —The Thermometer is one of A. Vas torelli’s, London, graduated according to Fahren heit’s Scale.

Jackson arrived al Nashville on the 11 tl 1 inst., and left the next day for White Creek Springs, where he is to spend a few days. He is accompanied by Judge Catron. Important from Canida.— The editor of the “ Montreal Herald” is a singular arid erratic genius, for he changes his opinion very often. When Mr. Patriot McKenzie was convicted, he gave a certain reason for it; but now he thinks differently, and says that Sir John Colborne has received orders from his government “to pursue, in case of future invasions of the Canadas from the Republic, and punish the outlaws whereever he can catch them;” which so frightened and intimidated the American authorities, that they immediately senten ced McKenzie and Case to the State Prison. Tlie “Herald” man knows of several in stances where the patriots have been chas ed into the States and captured, the Ameri can authorities not attempting to interfere in the slightest degree. if the above information be correct, there w ill be a good deal of trouble on the fron tier—that is, if Sir John followes out his instructions to the letter. For if any pat riots are pursued over the lines, the pur suers will go back much faster than they came. ■ “ Tii-y come as fleet as forest deer, We’ll drive them back as tame.” The Treasury of Maine lias demanded the sum ofoo.ooo dollars from the banks of Port land, for the purpose of meeting the expenses of the Aroostook expedition. 1 lie banks are obliged by their charters to loan ten per cent, of their capital to the Slate 011 demand. J. Fcnimore Cooperhas brought three new libel suits against editors for alledged damages done to his character. If Fenimore can be in duced to say what he considers his whole char acter worth, the better way will be for the edi torial corps to pay him the entire value of the whole article at once and thensay what they please about it. The Monroe Bail Road and Banking Company has declared adiviilend of three dol lars a share ,-ipon the business of the last six months !—Pretty fair—considering how the Institution has been cried down, lied upon, and run, upon by certain Augusta Banks and Bro kers. The Earl of Dartmouth, at the desire of the trustees of Dartmouth College, N. IL has pre sented to that institution a splendid portrait of his grandfather, its founder. A liberal dona tion of valuable books for the college library lias also been made by Earl Dartmouth. Still Enter from Europe. Arrival of tile liritlsli ttueeii— Six days Later from England— Further tier line in Cotton. The IlriiiMh tml American Steam Ntniga tlon Company*, new .(earner, the British Queen, arrived itt New York on Sunday the (Will of July, in If) days and a half from Ports mouth, whence she sailed on the 12th, bringing London dates of the evening of the 11 lit. Wc are sorry to say that Cotton has again fallen fully one half penny since the sailing of the Ureal Western, and that the state of the money market in England was quite ns had as per last accounts. Our dates aru up to the e vening of the 12th day, on which it was uni versally expected that the Hank of England would raise the interest to six per cent. The notice however, did not take place, though it was intimated from the Hank Parlour that the interest would probably he advanced on the following Thursday, the 18th. The Spinners at Manchester, have renewed their agreement to “work short,” notice of w hich was published in London on the 11th. and it was supposed that a further decline in Cotton would probably follow. la the Cotton market affairs have become even considerably worse—for the fall at Liver pool Ims been no less than J per lb. during the shorttime which hits elapsed since the (beat Western sailed. A letter from the most emi nent firm in the trade, states that “the largest spinners buy only from forty to fifty bales per day—merely to keep open the mills—mid any person desirous of speculating, might almost make his ow n prices.” .Speculative opinions are therefore useless at the present time. Th • disturbances at Dirininghum continue, but the Chartists have not attempted to make head against the regular troops—nor have any lives been lost in the various frays with the police. Mr. Lovett, the Secretary and Dr. Taylor and Mr. Harvey, two of the most rev olutionary members of the convention, have been arrested and are now in Warwick jail. There is no doubt that as now organized, the Chartist movements may lie very easily stir pressed ; but should Mr. Atwood, as some parties appear to anticipate, attach himself to that party, the tide of population which w ould follow such a leader would probably trample under foot both the police and the troops. There is, however, no real reason for suppo sing that Mr. Atwood would hastily take the final step in Hie revolutionary cause ; though onfiu driven into opposition to the government, this mail has the power, unquestionably, to be the author of the mightiest events. HOUSE OF COMMONS—JuIy 9. Texas. —Mr. O’Connell wished to put a question, of which he had given notice, rela tive to certain persons who had seized a por tion of the J/exicun Territory, calling them selves the state of Texas. Were any negotia tions pending between this Government and those persons for the purpose of recognizing the independence of that state? Lord Palmerston stated that an application had been made to the Government in the ear ly part of lust year, by persons from Texas, for the purpose of knowing whether the Gov ernment were preparing to ucknolcdge the in dependence. of Texas. The answer given to that application was, that the general principle oi the Government was to acknowledge every stale that was dc facto independent, but under the circumstances at present existing with res iti”iinVxico Irad'suciVcssiiiliy iie.gofitileil between France and mexico, instructions had been sent out to endeavour to effect a similar urrangu mens between mexico and Texas. nir. O’Connell asked if the communications hud relation to the slave trade. Lord Palmerston said, the communications were of a general nature, and did not include any detail of that kind. LONDON, July 11. Before this day’s Times is in the hands of its readers the body of the Lany Flora Has tongs will be on its passage to the tomb of her ancestors in Scotland. It was to be removed at the early hour of three o’clock this morning from Buckingham Place ; and all the usual marks of respect will be shown to it by every inmate of the Palace, by her oit personal friends, and those of her family. The presentation of Robert Owen nt Court by Lord melbourne, is one of the most humili ating events which have recently occurred. It might have, indeed, been Imped, that we should at least been spared the sin and sliatnc of such a national degradation. Murder of Moore. —-We have before us (lie Red River Whig, detailing the circumstances attended this most atrocious murder. It ap pears that Moore never refused to fight Hol stein. Seventeen days after Moore had refu sed to fight Zim, and offered to meet li is second, Holstein, the murder Cook place. It is sta ted in the Whig that Holstein was urged to exe cute the blody deed by persons high in authori ty and soeie'y. If so, there can be no mea sure of punishment too great for such men. But to the death of poor Moore. On the morning of the 2d of July, Moore was returning from the country to town as was his custom, when he stopped in front of the ferry house on the river bank, opposite Alexandria. While there, Holstein, who had been concealed in the house since early in the morning, rushed out and called upon Moore to beg for his life or he would kill him. Moore drew himself up ul foil length, folded bis aims across his breast, and told Holstein that he would not beg for his life, but that Holstein might shoot him, as he bad him (Moore) in his power. Thereupon he snapped the double barrelled gun at Moore. Someone interceding, Holstein threw down the gtm and drew a du eling pistol that had been loaned him for the occasion, and again bade Moore to beg for his life. Mr. Moore, maintaining his position, said “I will not beg for my life. I have never re fused to give you the satisfaction that honor requires ; —but I am in your power—shoot!” The murderer shot, and Moore fell ; the ball piercing the abdomen, and ascended tlicspine. Holstein forewith mounted the horse that was ready for him and fled. Moore died the same evening in the most excruciating pain, but having his senses to the last. When tole that he could not live, he said—l do not fear death, boys? I have lived a Whig, and I die a W hig!” At the heal of his journal stood the epi graph—“ Liberty of ihe Press is the air we breathe without it we die.” Couid poor Moore have chosen a motto that had better prefigured bis own fate? The parish of Rapides is in a great state of excitement at this outrageous act. No man’s life will be safe unless the mur derer be arrested.—N. O. Am. President Van Suren arrired at Hudson from Poughkeepsie, on Friday, the 19th inst., having spent a day or two with ex-Gov. Mor gan Lewis on the road. On Saturday he pro ceeded to Kinderhook. His welcome to that village, the place of his birth, and at Hudson, the city ofhis adoption, is slated to have been in tlie highest begree enthusiastic and must have been exceedingly gratifying to him. On Thursday he arrired at Albany where his re ception (says the Evening Journal, an Opp. paper) was attended “ withall 1 tire pomp and circumstance’ that cannon, soldiery and music could impart.” He was addressed by Gov.
