MONDAY, FEBllUAllf 22, 1819.
CORRESPONDENCE.
The paper senl us under the imposing name of
*T ruth” is an anamoly in literatury—a mere assem
blage of words without meaning—sheer nonsense —not
to be tolerated in a school-boy. J
“Pinto Mem vox” is received, and shall appear in
Our next, Such essay s give respec ability to our paper.
THE SEASON,
in ‘lie temperate regions of Europe and America, has
b- en the mildest in .he memory of man. In England,
during the latter part of December, many trees were
budding, the robin was seen building, and it was said
some persons had heard the voice of the cuckoo, which
seldom happens before the 15th or 20th of April. In
the northern states but little snow or ice has been seen;
and, until a few days ago, the weather, with the excep
tion of a few slight frosts, has been as moderate in the
lower part of Georgia as an English summer. Wild jes
samines, on the outskirts of Darien and the margin of
tile Alatamaha, were in bloom three weeks since. The
temperature, the forests, the fiel is, the insects, every
thing, save that faithful harbinger, the beetle, betoken
ed the commencement of spring, in consequence of
heavy falls of rain in the upper country, however, the
air lias become chill; and we should not be surprised f
the planting time prove unfavorable to the farmer, wlm
for two years past has suffered in his crops, first from
inctssant rain, and last year from a drouth without an
example in the annals of Georgia.
Darien, in common with other southern cities, has
suffered from the shortness of last year’s crop and low
s’ tie of the waters; and our purchasers of green-seed
cotton may be said literally to have been doing “business
Oita small scale.” They have, however, but little rea
son to repine on that score. Had the river risen at the
usual time, the then high price of cotton and its subse
quent decline would have rumedNie exporter. The
prospect now is better. Cotton lias fallen to what may
be termed its standard value; where if great profit be
not realized but little risk js encountered. The river
has swollen, a number of boats are descen ling and there
is every appearance of brisk business soon.
TEA PLANT.
The cultivation of the tea plant is attracting consid
erable attention in France, where it is said to succeed
remarkably well. The plant was first introduced into
that kingdom, by a Russ.an, in 1814, and there are now
in it three hundred stalks, which are to be sold by sub
scription. The tea is said to lie equal to that produced
in China, and has received the approbation of the king’s
physicians. The tea plant, the olive, the almond and
silk worm find no climate more genial than that of
Georgia and South-Carolina. The high price of cotton
has hitherto induced our c tizens to neglect them.—
Now that it has declined, and will never, in all proba
bility, regain its former standing, we cannot but hope,
that some attention will be paid them, and that the in
habitants of the pine woods in particular, employ them
soil inlhc cultivation of articles for widen nature seems
to have intended it, and which will place them in more
easy circumstances than they now are, and save annually
to the country several million of dollars.
SEMINOLIE WAR.
After engaging the attention of the house of repre
sentatives for three week, the debate on this question
Was brought to a close a’ a late hour on the Bth instant.
Mr. Clay spoke for some time in favor of the report of
the military committee, and was answered by Mr. Floyd,
and Mr. Irvine of South Carolina. Every ques ion, and
there were several, was carried m favor of general Jack
son’s conduct. On that part connected with Arbuth
not’s execution, the majority was one hundred and
eight to sixty -two; on that which respected A.nbris er,
the majority was one hundred and seven to sixty-three;
and the motion of Mr. C >bb—whom we consider an or
nament to Georgia—declaring the seizure of Pensaco
la and San Carlos de lai ancas contrary to the constitu
tion of the United States, was negatived by one hun
dred votes to seventy.
I bis termination, we confess, is what we little ex
pected, the charges being so clearly and well defined
by official documents, that the majority of the lower
house of congress could not, we are confident, have,
for a moment, questioned the illegality of the proceed
ings of general Jackson in the Floridas. H,s disobe
dience of orders from the war department and usurp
ing the powers of congress, by waging hostilities a
gainst the garrisons of Spain; his muckerv of trials iit
cases of life and death; and ins violating the code of
nations, by the execution of his prisoners—may the
curses of our murdered citizens rest on their spirits—
when no extreme necessity existed to justify this
stretch of military power—arc points established, and
will descend to posterity as historical truths. Yet we
cannot arraign the motives by winch tlie ni:> joritv have
been actuated, though the principle be des.r ic ive to
liberty, and points out the path for some western Cq- ;
sat- to enter the capital in triumph, to meet —we trus; j
—tile poinard of a second Brutus. Had a censure been
passed upon the hero of Orleans—for wi'h ail h.s faults
we admire, and feel grateful tow an is, him—Spain would ,
have immediately called upon the country for that |
to which she has not virtually the shadow of a right,
compensation for such losses as she may have stis anted
fimin the occupancy of her pos sby our army. For the
s *ke of legitimacy, the crowned heads of Europe would
perhaps gladly take advantage of any pretext to rise en
5 • ass and erase from the catalogue of nations the only 1
f-ce government on earth. While the plea is withheld
and the nation identifies itself with the general,. hey will
hardly dare to assail us, the Frencn revolution having
taught their vassals to think, and satisfactorib. proven
that war to be successful must be popular, and to be
popular must carry with it the appearance of justice.—
Such considerations only could have led the house of
representatives to acquit general Jackson, and sacrifice
the sanctity of the constitution upon the altar of politi
cal expediency.
But, though we thus freely exonerate the represen
t Jive chamber of any invidious or unworthy des.gn, wo
cannot but sincerely regret that innovations in our po
lity should be thought less dangerous titan the sword
cf.the foreigner. What but the rigid observance of
our laws and the sacredness of the constiui ion, is there
to preserve our freedom from the towering ambition
cf our own countrymen who may be surrounded w ith
the halo of victory , or bending to the ground tt i ler : lie
weight of civic honors? It is a fact established by
history, ancient and modern, notwithstanding some
prints (which take party ism for principle and the acts
of'hose in office right or wrong as the standard of rec
titude) a fleet to jeer the idea, that every republic ante
rior to cur own was subverted by some military leader.
Auled by previous example and enlarged knowledge,
cm ’s, to be sure, has been fixed on a firmer founda
tion than that of its predecessors; but are we to believe
that knowledge can reverse the order of nature, or fix
any human institution upon an immutable basis? Will
nations, after attaining their acme, no longer decline?
No one acquainted with human nature will believe it.
—The day will yet come, when our eagle shall be
stript of his pinions, and instead of exultmgh soaring
droop iti the tinselled
-if
hut may heaven long delay the calamitous moment, and
a low gener.it ..n .if r generation to enjoy the privi
leges ot their forefathers
It is the imper.ous duty ot congress and of everv
man m the country to watch over the safety of the
constitution with a jealous eye, and repress and extin
guish ev erv effort io infringe or enfee.ue l s principles.
So long as its application includes our ulterior and in
terior policy shall freedom illumine our shores, but no ■
longer. We have nothing dangerous to fear from Eu
ropean combinations. An expanse of four thousand j
nnk set ocea.i separates u.s tcoin Europe, and twelve
millions of free-born people are prepared to defend
our coasts. ('an tne minions ol princes subdue us
or alter a sentence in our statute-book? Certainly j
imt. Ihe dark blue wave mat brings iliem must bear j
them back, or leave them to find graves in our forests.
But there is nothing to obtend against internal conspi- j
ra y and slavery, e .cept by stric.ly enforcing ou ■ law s,
and inflicting punishment lor every trespass Knowingly
made, without inquiring into the niotive that dictated
it.

“Indued diacuni , ament meminisse peritt.”
Messrs. Editors—As I do not pretend to an acquain
tance with all tiie ramifications of the banking si stem,
much less that*system so lately discovered and adopted
by Mr. William Jones—not sir William Jones, author of
Asiatic Research's, but the late prescient of the United
Slates’ Bank—tvtio was originally a needy merchant.
“.Mark that, master Brook!” A needy merchant—now,
a uian of fortune, and retired from business, in order to
write his researches into the sy stem of stock-jobbing,
or the art ot raising the wind. 1 hope you will excuse
me, Messrs, editors, for just giving a hint at what some
merchants can do when they have the management of
a bank. 1 siial! now inform you, why 1 obtrude myself
on the public. A iew day s ago, when returning from
my plough, .Mr. Harrow (a neighbor of in.ne) brought
me your paper of the Ist instant, in w inch I observed
a paragraph, over tne the signature ot •Mercator, who
seems to be so extremely anxious for the welfare of the
planters and independent gentlemen m and about tiie
neighborhood of Darien, that he would exclude them
ail irom the trouble and responsibility m the mamere
ment of tiie Darien Bank, which he thinks would he
managed much better by the merchants, w ho under
stand turning the penny to more*advantage. Ah, Mr.
J outs —1 mean Mr Mrc tor—how very kind it is of
you to aim at lakmg sucii a burthen upon yourself; and
to have its operation confided exclusive!. to mercantile
characters and to s .cu traders as would, m that case, be
elected.
Tne present defalcation of some of the directors of
the Na. fi tal Bank is a lesson easily applied. In that
direction, there was but u single pi”, iter, and he too a
painter of Ge .g ... He is lionosaoly ex epted from
th.- c< r p; o.i e<i th t si ition, which lias entailed
ecerii-l unbrace .po.. oui country!
is i poss.ole for a moment to s ippose, than honora
ble country gentlemen, of liberal e ucation, who, m
ma iy ms.ant es, ha.e filiea with honor the most distm
gui.Jie i mid imp -riant s.a ions in ou. republic, are less
capable of con-. icung the fiscal oncer ,sos a bank than
men retailing in a small way, uit i a clear capital ot’ not
more perhaps man lour or live hundred dollars. Sucti
persons, how expert soever m managing a pellv stock,
, can iia*. eli L or no ten 1 4ge of practical banking;
a . i dieir u.m being entire y engrossed uy tiie business
wliicb maintains hem, s.iil less of the theory of finance.
It must be admit.e.i, tiiai m aqnrnig to the direction of
our bank, some s.mster motiv e propels them, rhe'ir
connections and homes are at a great distance, and their
warmes feelings ana best wishes must center there.—
Seldom or never intending to spend the evening of life
! under u sou.hern s .n, their oil! object is to acquire mo
ney, ana return with it to me north as soon as possible.
Nominate a direction of these men, and o ur vaults mav,
in a short ume, oe drame.. for their northern friends, to
nirmsii cash for India speculation —to speculate in the
cotton of Hindustan, to undersei American cotton m
Europe, and thereby ruin our southern p!.... ers. They
will seek for opportunities to puff up ou; .rack, in or
der to sell out; and .hen reduce it again, in order to
buy in. 1 vvisn not to insinuate that there are men in
Darien so oase as to be gmlty of such d.s i morable
practices—but barely mention what may he U me, hav
ing recently had incon estible proofs of the manner
in which some mercantile men control a ban;.-.. | need
not again remind you of the transactions of the mercan
tile direction of the JVutional Hunk.
Our state government, which holds an equal portion
of your stock, hath wisely appointed five directors all
of wnom are interested m agricultural pursuits, and
such as, for talents, industry and independence, cannot
be excelled, and m whom, we of the plough have the
most implicit confidence.
1 think, Messrs, editors, that Mercator draws a false
conclusion for this appointment, by saving our legisla
ture meant that the stockholders should fill up tiie
other iite places witn mercantile characters, winch m
my rustic opinion is not tiie case. 1 hey display ed their
wisdom m naming men, noted for probitv and virtue,
an<i whose snua.i ms in life insured .iiem against a pos
sibdity of degrading the insulation, by unfair specula
tion: Lot the stockholders follow so laudable an exam
ple, and they w ill soon find ille benefit which will re
sult from it.
Mercatt r seems to dread, that certain mercantile
houses will receive too great a share of bank favors, or
rather that houses esiuol.shcd and yvell known in Da
rien w ill receive larger discounts than strangers.
Now, Messrs, editors, it is my humble opinion, that
the planters are Riiquestionubly the safest and best cus
tomers your bank can have, inasmuch as they have fix
ed resiliences, i.amo. cable and real property; moreover
yilien they borrow, it is tor momentary occasions, and
not to speculate; They only require small loans be
tween crops, to pay off hirelings, and to buy clothing,
provisions, etc. for I heir pLnlat ions. By them y our bank
paper Will be widely tiiii'useu and its credit supported.
To the established merchants of Darien 1 would extend
the most liberal accminnoUa'.ion, to enable them to give
us a good price for our cotton, l'lieir character and
standing in society will always be a sure pledge that the
amount of their purchases will be devoted to liquidate
theuttbnnk debts. Can those wiio come to pass the
winßßbnting us (for lie purpose of retailing jgfcoiis
credit) and return m the spring,
inodaled with safety by any bank? A iminh(*r of them
endorsing cich other’s paper would be no security; as
they disappear together, carrying your cash
to pay At some confidential credit,. ‘
I h iveAut one iiirare remark LpTnake, and that is, re-
offices muresi<j£nt and cashier. My opi
nion is line they canno rMtorc ahlvfilled than bv those
gentlemen generally nafmwWor those offices. If talent 1
and In ii rauie deportment liTqryery line designate the
firs—and great experience the second—
and if zeal and,Sacrifices for tile interest and benefit of
the inhabitant*? have any merit, they hNvc also that claim.
By g v-ng/fus a place in y our paper, y%i will oblige a
tolerably good ploughman. \jLVTOB.

SUMMARY.
Election by Districts. —On the 4th instant a bill had
passed the senate of the United States, to amend the
constitution so far as to provide a uniform mode (bv dis
tricts) of electing electors of president and vice-presi
dent of the United States, and members of congress; and
was sent to the lower house for concurrence.
Sovth-American relations. —All communications made
by the agents of the Patriots at Washington City have
e.herfbeen suspended or entirely broken off by the sec
retary ot state, Mr. Adams. We sincerely wish the
revolutionary governments success in their Struggle so? I
independence, but by u i means can think of blaming
our government for refusing to recognize the agents of
countries which, with the exception of Buenos Ayres,
may be said to have no liberty but anarchy and no poli
ty save martial law.
Senator from Louisiana. —James Brown is elected
from that state senator to congress, for six years from
the Jd proximo, m place of Mr. FTonicntin, whose term
then expires.
Restoration of Pensacola, —A private letter from
Blakely, (Alabama) dated 15ih nil. states, that Pensaco
la iiad been restored to the Hpamsii authorities.
• Mexican Frontier.—Three companies of regular troops,
under command ot captain Chrisuan, arrived at Alexan
dria, (Louisiana) on the 2d ult. on ttieir march to the
Sabine, supposed to be for the purpose or driving the
Spaniards beyond our limits. More troops for the same
destination were said to be ou their way from Baton
Rouge, and it was believed that an adequate fiiree would
be left on the frontiers to protect our citizens.
• Ur. Pier paint, author of the Airs of Palestine, a pretty
little poem, has been invited to become the'pasmr of a
church in Boston.
('btton, at Nashville, 26th ult. was selling for seven
teen cents per pound.
Unfortunate affair.— General Armistead T. Mason and
Mr. J. V. M'Carty, both ot \ irgmia, met on tiie ikh in
stant at Bladensburg, Maryland, with marine muskets,
and fought at the distance often paces. The general
was shot through tile heart, and Ins antagonist wounded
m the arm, his hall having struck the musket ot M’Gariy,
and glanced. The quarrel commenced at the last elec
tion for congress in Loudon county, Virginia, when the
general was elected by the republicans senator. A long
controversy between the parties ensued m the pnonc
prints, w hich was believed to have been since seltJeu in
the interference ot mutual friends; but though llie gen
eral and Mr. M’Uarty -were cousins in the first degree, and
one oj them had been married to the sister of the ot/wi ■, iiie
flame ot dissention broke out afresh, and ternima eu fa
tally to the general, who has left a venerable mo. Her, a
widow and an infant child to mourn Ins untimely end.
Bank of .Mobile. —The capital stock, seventy thousand
dollars, had been subscribed for on the 28th ultimo, am*,
an election for for officers was to take p.aee on tne Udi
instant. The bank is to go into operation as soon as
materials can be procured.
On the 28th ultimo, captain Gadsden had completed
the lay ing out of the fortifications at Mobile Point and
Dauplnne Island, an 1 the contractors commenced the
work.
The •Mai! Bobbers. —Two of them, Pete)- Bertrand, a
seaman, and Joseph .Maurie, formerly a midshipman m
tne French service, were taken by the police m Nevv-
York on the night of the 2d instant. At about 11 o’cLck
they knocked at the door of a French shoemaker, with
whom oneof them had been acquainted, and requested
permission to pass the night in Ins house, aliedgiug-thev
had been locked out from their boarding house, fie
shewed them to a bed room, and there left them; but
reflecting on tiie story of the mail robbery and it atteiul
an circumstances, ue became suspicious, ami determin
ed to watch them. Their behaviour and mysterious
conversation strengthened his distrust; and leaving his
partner to engage their attention, took an interpreter
with him (net understanding the English language him
self) to lodge information at the police office. T\vo.otfi
cers returned with him and apprehended tiie robbers,
on whom was found a considerable amount of money in
bills. Bertrand acknowledged his guilt immediately,
but the other refused to give any information saying his
honor forbade it.
Inh /muu I eansaction. —The body of a lady, who not
long since died and was buried at Trenton, in the staie
• f Now-York, lias, after being disrobed even to its last
garment, taken from the grave for dissection. Soon as
the savage dee 1 was discovered, a strict search was made
bv the citizens, who found the corpse horridly mutilat
ed 111 ai > out building. It was immediately re-mtered,
and measures adopted to ascertain the perpetrators
of the shocking act. Should they turn out to be physi
cians, the inhabitants are determined to withdraw their
patronage, and exclude them from ail intercourse with
their society.
Steam-Boats. —On the Mississippi and its tributary
waters, are ol steam-boats, and . it) more on the socks,
that will be in mot ion the ensuing summer. It is calcu
lated that the freight and passage money will amoun ,
annually, to the enormous sum .f&2,s.s6,66operaiin.itri.
Bostonians in the Biitish Parliament. —Sir Isaac Coffin,
general Sheaffe and John S. Copley, Bostonians, are
members of the present British parliament. It is not
a little surprising that natives of the town which stood
foremost in the revolutionary war against the tyranny
of England should be among the first Americans to ig
nobly abjure their freedom and enter into the l.sis of cor
ruption as candidates fin- stars and garters.
Fifteen thousand nine hundred and sixty-one dollars
and ninety cen s, has been paid into the treasury, bv
the licensed auctioners of the city of Philadelphia, fur
the quarter commencing Nov. 1,1818, and emfing Janua
ry 30, 1818.

ALONZO,
LINES inscribed to ———.
I cannot farewell say to thee,
And think it is f r ver;
Too well I know the thought would be,
M v drooping heart to sever
From every fond endearing theme,
So long I’ve loved to cherish;
Like blossom torn from parent stem,
Thai falls, alas! to perish.
Oh, part not so! there is a grief
Beyond the power of healing;
That knows no balm, nor finds relief)
But in the waste of feeling.
And such my true heart’s liapU ss state,
Its love no more returning;
So mourns the faithful dove its mate,
So wastes its life in mourning*.
If part we must, such farewell take
As dwells upon assurance,
That thou wilt ne’er that heart forsake
To such unbless’d endurance:
And w hen the sad adieu is given,
This hope shall bright sorrow;
The setting sun thus thus gilds the heaven,
In token of the morrow,
