THE SAFETY OF TEE STRONGDOXSYSTEM
When the proposition of Ge.. Gm do i u- s
submitted to Congress, for the i.tioiiuclio 1 of
the Strong box System, m the colkction m.d
disbursement of the revet ue, Mr. Calhoun de
scribed it as less convenient, less ecotioiiiicai
and less safe than a State Bank ig'.-; c y. M*'.
Woodbury was of the same opinion, and de
monstrated by figures, that during forty years
experience of the GoAerument, the Treasury
had lost less money by all its b.n.k agencies to
gather, than by the defidcatio.i <-f a si igle Lt
dividual. This is as true, we pr- euma, nt. the
present day, as it was when written by Mr.
Woodbury. The Banks, io be sun, which
were employed by the Treasury, in a period
of unexampled pressure- a d sufi ;rg. sus
pended specie payments ; but the e iir. B k
debt to the Treasury has cither b e;i bqifd.de
or secured Is this a sitfiicie t re..so,i for dis
carding Bank agency in G vermneu' negoi-i
atious ? As well might we dippers - with a
Treasury Department, because the 'Treasury
suspended the.moment it le;.rued fiom tin
newspapers the disaster that had bid leu th-
Banks. Not only Mr. Woodbury and Mr.
Calhoun, but Mr. Wright himself has borm
testimony to the general convenience and safe
ty of banking institutions, ai d made a special
averment, as of a fact ; within Us «w know
ledge, not merely that the B i. ks of this State
are not, never were, and m v, r cm; d be po
litical or partisan institutions, but th .1 h - s ite
ty fund system is the most ; erect fiscal sys
tem in existence.
“Banking i .stitutions,” says Mr. Sa?atoi
Preston, in his recent admirable Utter io tn--
Richland Committee, “by u iv rs-d <• » s .t,
“are the cheapest, safest, and most cuai'e: i ■
“agencies for the custody ad transf r of ih
“public money. Everyman who has moii ; y
“dealings practically establishes this by his
“own conduct in regard to his own affairs.
“To effect this object is one of the purpose
“of their creation; and they ; r•, therefore,
“organized to accomplish them bv th * mos'
“skilful adaptation of means. Large r
“sources give them a more cxti :;tk d cr dit
“than in general belongs to individuals, and at
“once makes them more officio. t agents, in the
“transaction of exchanges, a d n. ire respu ,i
--“stble for the fulfilment of their engage
'“inents.”
But it is notAieceesary to appeal lo the spec
'lllations of our own party, or even to the ad
missions of the Toies. to prove th.it the pro
posed Sub-Treasury is a less safe depository
of the public, money, than a well regulated
Bank Agency. We have the evidence of rig
ures; we have proof enough from-ihe official
documents of the Administration, ai d from
acknowledged facts, that have not yet been of
ficially communcated to the people. Wh.it
sort of a Sub Treasurer has Mr. Robert T. Lyt
le, of Cincinnati, proved ? He is a public de
faulter, to the tune of from 830,001) to 8-10,-
000. When has the Administration lost this
sum by giving credit to a Bank 1 In the very
whirl, and fever of speculation—i i the great
Catastrophe of suspension ; —in what i >sta ce
has the Treasury lost so large a sum by the
failure of a Bank ? What will the Adminis
tration presses say of the defalcation of one
of their “R Cl ivers” in .Mississippi, bv which
the Treasury lost 8100 000 ? 11 iw will they
justify the continua ,ce <>f this d. fiu'ter in of
fice, on the plea that he was gorged with nlmi
der, and that the appoi ilm nit of the sucres
sor would only lead to new frauds and pecula
tions? We all remember the hurricane, that
was raised by the 'Tories, when it was ascer
tamed that Tobias Walki is huib-en found to
be a defaulter in the sum of few thousand
dollars. On this defalcation—“solitary aid
■ lone”—they lived ami thrived for i twelve
inooth* The opposition heard of nothi- g but
Watkins. The unfortunate vid.tn was visi
ted with the heaviest penalties of law—ami
was cast into adu igeon to -t >».” S ieh wa>
the humane decree of President J ..cksou.
Here is Mr. Lytle, a defmlter in a sum four
or five times as large—and a numlerid other
defaulters, equally culpable. Do we h ar of
any prosecutions? Do we hear of any thing
like bolts and bars and tins co fi.iemeut ?
H»ve net these men been shi Id d from the
1“’? Ami why shielded? On account of
t..d tender mercies of the Cabal in power?
Would Mr. Van Buren spare a defaulter, of]
whom he could make un example? There is
but one mode of’ accounting for the c-mrsi; of
the Government tn this matter. Men high in
power have been accessaries or accomp'ices in
the defalcations. “Ils will be dear to Vet j s,”
says the Roman satirist, “who can accuse
Verres.” And thus public d faulters go not
merely unpunished, but patronised by the Exe
cutivo, because they can tell tai s which the
Executive dreads to hear. No mm of intel
ligeuce ch i doubt that such is the fact. We
annex a list of the most eminent defaulters,
taken from a public document, communicated

Our neighbor, the - Banner,” is quite out of
humorthat the citizens <>f Glynn county should
have elected this distinguish' d Georgian to a
seat in the Senate i f the State, and assailed
him last week in an article as malignant as it
is violative of tru'h. If the citizens ofGlyir;

FOB THE WHIG.
ATr. Jones, —
I take leave through the columns
of your independant paper, to suggest to the
gored and true of the States Rights party,—who
I hope are as numerous as the party itself, —
the llouoraile Geobge W. Chawford, oi’
Richmond, as a gentleman well qualified b»
his talents, charueli r, disinterestedness and in
dependence. to preside over the Hou.,e of Re
press. tutires, at the approaching Session of
the General Assembly.
At List, our cause has triumphed. We owe
it to ourselves, and the principles for which
we have so long contended, and fir which
.ve have been so much calumniated, to
place the patriot, the Statesman, the gentle
man, the high mi; d- d and the chivalric over
our Legislative bodies; —men whose love of
principle surpasses their love of office—w ho
without any selfishness to gratify, feel identi
fied with the honor and reputation of the par
ty. In my view, the chair of the Presidency
of the Senate, and the Seat of the Speaker of
the House, is not a thing to be snatched at. or
disposed of, as may be the situation of a Door-
Keeper or Messenger : It is for the members
of each to look around, and select suitable per
sons. Li nine casts out of ten, the member
who comes forwatd and claims the station, is
unqualified to discharge the arduous duties in
a proper manner. The gentleman, whom I
have suggested, is believed to be eminently
qualifi dto fill the office ofSpeaker, and there
- fore i have takt-n the liberty of suggesting
him—for it is very certain that he would nev
[ er volunteer his services, and claim the ap
pointment. I speak of him from what has
been observed of him in the discharge of his
public duties; personally. ! can claim but a
very partial aequaiutmice with him.
I hive named Col. Cbawfobd : If any
cerrrspondeut will suggest a man better quali
fied, I feel very co fid;mt that Col. C’s friends
will most cliecrfullv give him their support :
Ail we want, is a tab-iit.-d, high mi-.ded, i.-.de
peiiik-ut, disinterested Speaker; let those who
prefer a fourth or fifth rate man, bring him for
ward—we go tor the best qualified.

RANDOM THOUGHTS ON EDUCATION.
I. Au Indian Chi<i is the “Bear,” “Alli
gator,” “ Fox,” “ Snake The Cherubim of
the Hebrews, at the period of the Exodus,
were represented by a group of beasts and
birds. The attributes of God, and godlike
men, ate notions not distinguishable from those
; of bi Lite instincts, by the uneducated.
The Jttws worshipped types mid figures,
and perst cut.eu the teacher of a more < might
! eued period for interpreting *. ! “'m. I he Jew
{ isl, scribes and lawyers taught according to
| the letter; the Chiisttans are taught accord
! ing to the spirit.
I A whole people may be misled by a partial
| or contracted educati >ti.
j 11. The Egyptian Py ramtds, Obelisks, and
I col ssal images, sh-w a vast amount of labour
{ and material. The < 'liinese w-. 11 and Canal
i are huge aggregates of labour and matter, not
wtihout an end, but an inadequate one—to
shelter cowards, and to add to the comu'ercc
of the world one article—Tea.
The Apoilo, the Venus, the Laocoon, of an
cient sculpture, owe to matter some two scare
cubic Sect of stone, —to mind they arc indebten
tor the mastery over the attention of thousands
who have beheld then;, of millions who ad
mire them in description.
What would Europe and Asia have afford
e'd to ancient history, unless to those conti
nents h.id been appended those two small 1 enin
suh’.s, Italy and Greece, —those stepping stones
ot' Education !
111. Education appears to some pursued
lor ns own sake only, when extended beyond
th • obj ct el uil'jrdi. g individuals the means
to “make their .ivi g.” B-asts, birds, and
fishes, bring up their nestlings, cubs, and
spawn, to make their way in the world.”
IV. A vast territory gives facilities for mui
i t-plymg the specits. Bulky provinces m.d
mammoth commumtii s were sou d in the des
potic precincts of Persia, India, China, and in
the Gothic forests.
V. Republics, according to Montesquieu’s
theory, and to the examples of Iceland and
Switzerland and San Maruts (the only rep b
lies east of the Atlantic) ate founded in the
morality and mental culture of the p ople.—
Reverse the conditions, the republic tails ; the
extension of the arts and accumulation of
■ wealth by con tncrce is no guarantee for it 4
continuance. Ruin may be accelerated b>
Steam-power.
History awaits a great event. Shall Edu
cation advar.ee, or—what will be the duration
ot a certain 1 ast empire ?
A I “1 his age of active enterprize cannot
wait fill' education. ’ But some can suspend
their operations of banking, pla ting and tra
litig these w ill govern the busy public unless
controlled by uneducated pub ic. Public en
quiiy has 110 eye-sight without education.
All. Education at school and G'ollege. is
only the groundwmk of instruction : Galileo
le,lined at tio school, the true theory <-fthc
planct.iiy inov»'met its : his self-taught doctrines
overthrew the schools. 1
A 111, Education should only b> limited bv
tn: 1 means ot the scholar. An education, con
fined to military studies, made Napoleon a
military despot; a more general educatio:
fostered aAV ashington. An educated public
opens a maiket tor the productions of gemus,
of a .Vu.zart, a Milton, ora Shakespeare.—
Education is the i vestment of capital i 1 a
luxury. A Grecian banquet was incomplete
without the lyre: any guest who passed the
lyre without givrig its melody to the company
was looked o i lhe-’e as a churlish companion
among “good livers. ’
IX. Education should be enforced early.
A pmiy body ca inot io the adult ba fostered
into just proportions. This applies equally to
nund.
X. The ambition of a scholar is to advance
his art. Class rivalry among class-fellows
gives a lie to th. ir liberal educ.-timi.
There is evil ni the display of irequeut pub
he cvnmi .iitim s.
XI. 'i hcre are some examples in f-ivor of
neglecting er limiting education, 'i’lie an
cte. t Persiaii taught his son only to ride and
shoot and be a truth-teller. But this either
applied to Persian children of very tender
years : or to a period of Persian history simi
lar to that of our back woods.
Xil. Obder is the w atchword of c tviiiz >
tioij, the key-stone of government, the life of
education.
Firstly. Order in th- subjects of Education.
T.u re arc masculine ami female employ
ments in the w -ri I w hich resi>ectiv<-ly <ieve
lope mid cany out the rudiments acquired a;
school.
A woman is sought in marriage (or the
choice will be u;if irtum.te) fur her prouise<-f
q lalities useful as a mother. X mother forms
the sentiments of her child. A matron should
also excel in domestic economy. Matrons
are the patronesses of the tine arts : home is
ihe matron’s sphere, and religion is the foun
dation of peace at lismc.
Hence the following branches of study are
appropriate for females. .
Biography, especially that of excellent fe
males.
The Belleslettrcs.
Science, in a popular form.
Geography a .d Zoology of the East, history
of it: Ciiuich.
il riling Arithmetic and Grammar, Music
i .4 drawing need no new recommendations;
i: v lie at the foundation of education.
E lueation for males should append to the
f- r< g.ii -g: History, ancient and modern, in
great detail. i ll:- M ithametics, Zoology,
Geology, Chemestry, the ancient and modern
Li-guages, Elocu'ion and Rhetoric. A d last
ly, particular bia-ich- s, looking to the particu
lar di-simy of the individual. Mensuration,
Engineering, Architecture, Navigation, 'The
ology, Medicine, Law’, Political economy.
Order, secondly, is necessary in the imide
or means ofinstiuction
Deli-iqbgticy at school, of a moral nature is
not to be overlooked, or the schoolmaster would
be a conspirator against the public. In other
respects, school-boy-delinquency is of a more
questionable class of offences. “Spare the
rod, spoil the child,'’ is a maxim t'm-.t has pro
duced some scholars, but more s -hool-haters.
'To make children contio! th ir tempers, 'he
teacher ought to control his own; if we re
strain oiir anger towards men, we ought to
spare the child. But the switch er cane is
not an emblem <.f wrath in the school room.
Is it not? It is as difficult perhaps to distin
guish w hen the blow L i i wrath, as when the
pu| il is in (he wrong. At places of worship,
children observe order without the whipping:
Let parents respect the school next to the meet
ing house—their children will do likewise.

FIFTEEN DAYS LATER FROM EU
ROPE.
By thejirrival of the Royal William, steam
er, i.i 20 days from Liverpool, we have receiv.
e.l dates from Paris to the 17ih, Loudon to thu
19th, ami Liverpool to the 20 of September.
'The news by this arrival is of great impor
lance, particularly in a commercial and fiuan
ciid point of view.
The passage of the Royal William has
been very b nsterous, not having experienced
throughout the whole distance, a single fair
breeze, except one day, on the coast of Nova
Scotia when it blew a gale from the north east
and another on the Long Island shore.
In spite of the co .tmrv winds and tqninoc
tial gales, the Royal William proved herself u
capital sea boat. Tile oily drawback during
the voyage, was the great crowd of passengers;
who were so numerous for her size and uc
comdatioii, as to destroy all comfort, and al
most eudangi-r health, but more especially thd
shortness of the fuel. 'The culpable conduct
«f the directors of the trans-Atlantic Com
pany at Liverpool, cannot be passed over in
silence, Oi’ this, and of the i dernal manage
in -.it >.f th j E glrsh steamers, we shall speak
at full length i.i a day or two.
" Mexico.— The most impo'tai.t news by this
arrival are the latest accounts given of the dis
positions and movements of France and Eng.
land, relative to the blockade of Mexico. We
have private uitdiigence from Paris, from our'
correspondent there, wnich is particularly in
teresting at this morn; nt.
In the early part of September, Prince de
Joinvii'e had sailed fur Aera Cruz with a fleet
of three ships of the ii .e. ar d two bomb ves
sels, t..-i the purpose of reinforcing the Fret ch
I(1 :et b fore that city. It is supposed in Paris,
I and in L uidoii, taut the French government
i have the intention of possessing themselves
i ot some point d'appm of the southern conti
nent of America. At all events the Prince is
expected to strike a blow, if the Mexicans do
not yield, sufficient tp permit the King, to re v
f rto it with eclat at the next opei i >g of the
Chambeis.
The Fren :h blockade of Mexico is creating
a great ,‘e isation in England and Europe. In
London, the press has taken a tn >st active
: part : u ihe discussions arising out of theques
! tion whether the blockade is legal or not.
'The Pdtisi.m press, particularly the republi
can portion, defend the conduct of their guv.
erun-.ent in the trust energetic terms. It is re
markable, too, that this dei’enee should beset
up by that portion ofthe Parisian press, who
are most opposed to the government of the
King. As yet the British government has ta
ken no active part in relation to the blockade,
' but, it is believed, that the outcry raised by
mercantile interest in Lo.ndo -, and other com
mercial towns, will prevail on the British gov
erntnc .t to interfere i;i some formal method.
The diplomatic agent of d/c.X'Co and Bue
nos Ayres i London, were very urgent upon
the action of the government—a-.d this, ia
conjunction wiih the remo istrances of the mer.-
chants, it is supposed, will b.- able to effect a
check to the French policy.
We have received some important -facts of
the views of th- Frei.ch, and the jiolicy ofthe
Mexicans.
It seems that Mr. Hetio’erson, the tlip'omat
'ic agent from Texas, Was in • France in the
; month ot August or September. In Paris,
’ learned that he hid effected a
I treaty with E gland. As soon '
taut poi I had been effected in
1 H -nd< r 0:1 pro e- ded t > Paris - 5
i similar trea'v tie r . VVinte in
11 eV s of the Blo< k ide of M-xieo gave atW"
i view to the p isitio lof affairs. It was suppo
sed th tt it Mexico did not s- file her differen-
1 c s With Fra ce, th: t bv seme s< cret arrange,
merit, th : Texia s w 011 d attack Mexico by
i.i. d, simuTi eou-dy w i h the attmk by the
I French fleet by sea. All that the govern
j ment of Texas w.mtetl to raise 10,009 met: i»
i the v-t st; rti states was n sufliciei.cy of mo.
I uey. This advance might b - made by Franco
ion a si cr< t treaty, giving great advantages to
] the Texians. O 1 the other hand, the di
; (dominie age ts of Mexico and Buenos Ayrean
I govenimni ts were not idle in England. It was
i currently stated i 1 the best informed circles
i i : Lo d > ■, th.it prep i-atious were made to at
t .ck Fiench commerce by sea, as soon as the
first in’iiir ti ) 1 that a gun had been fired on
Si 1 Ju.iti de Ul'o or whenever Mexico had
declared war agai isl Fra ice S.vift sailing
vessels were rupi Jy pr.-jmriiig on the Thames,
on the .Hersey, an I at Bristol ready io issue at
a: y rnorne it. and t > act u. d r letters of mar
qu frotn Mexico or Buenos Ayres. The di
pl- matic ag ■4s of b4h these governments
w- re very' busy in perfecting these means of
retaliation—and it was b-sieved in England,,
that in the event of an open rupture, the Freuclfc
commerce on the Atlantic would suffer very
s v. r,.ly.
In every point of view, the affairs oftlo;
b.o' k ide ot .dexico atrl Buonos Ayres were
beginning to create a great imbroglio among
the governments and people of France and;
E gland. Already it has creat: d more pas
sion and virulence between the press of Lon
don and Paris, th tn any other qii aiion has
done or the last few years. This depth of
i iteres- is uugmo.iti d from the ialerfcrcneo the
