COWMBIiS, SATPBDAT, NOVEMBER 6, 1858 Foreign Bank Agencies. The Editor of the Columbus Times, in his issue of the 27th instant, has fallen into a common error. He regards the money, that is, the bank notes brought into the State by the agents of the South Carolina Banks, as so much capital added to that in the State. Now, they do not add one dollar of capital—-if they did they would abstract it from the vaults of the Carolina banks. What they bring is simply credit, and a credit not half so good as that of our own banks—all of which ap peared from the comparative statement published last October at the time of suspension. When a Carolina Agent buys cotton of a Geor gia farmer, he pays in promises to pay, i. e. the notes or the credit of a Carolina bank. That is just what he trades on, but he receives in return, cotton, which is as much cash as golden ingots, since the hank drawing against the cotton when shipped, receives for the same gold or silver, and a premium on its sterling exchange into the bar gain. When, however, citizens of Georgia unite and pay in various values, constituting the capi tal stock of a bank, that is capital, and it is capi tal at home, and the issues of bank notes based upon it can be redeemed for gold and silver with out goiug or sending into a neighboring State. — The history and exhibit of the Newberry, the People’s, South Western Ilailroad, and other hanks of South Carolina, show conclusively, that in the late crisis, the people of Georgia were much nearer suffering heavy losses by trusting outside banks, than they ever imagined.—Corres pondent Georgia Telegraph. The writer of the above paragraphs takes ex” ception to our terminology, and, so far as we can perceive, to that only. In commenting upon the recommendation to our Legislature, by the Comp troller General, Mr. Tlnveatt, to amend the tax laws of the State in relation to Foreign Bank Agencies, we employed the term, used by that functionary, of ‘‘foreign Bank Capital.” This expression has been made the subject of a criti cism in which we are informed that Bank notes are not capital, and that money (specie) is. Strict ly and technically speaking we were wrong, and so is our critic. In a politico-economical sense, money, whether metalic or paper, is not capital. It is merely an instrument for facilitating ex changes—of obviating the difficulty of effecting exchange in kind, or commodity for commodity. The phrase, however, is accepted in mercantile parlance, and in that way we adopted it. But, perhaps, we are doing injustice to the Telegraph’s correspondent to supposo that he would have writ ten a half column merely to convict us of error in phraseology. In our previous article, to which he made reference, we expressed our disapproval of the policy of Legislative discrimination against foreign banks, and thought that equal taxation, or free trade was the correct principle. Express ions in the article from which we v~ • - made the above extract, hint that this opinion is not entertained M *be writer. Being unable to im pute any solid objection that can be urged against the principle we have espoused, we shall withhold our defence until an attack is made. We will not allow the thought, that there can bo found a man who would support the policy of discrimination, unless upon a more intelligent and reasonable ba sis, than the relation of the subject to an imagina ry line. The writer, above says: “ When a Carolina agent buys cotton of a Georgia farmer, he pays in promises to pay. i. c. the notes or the credit of a Carolina bank.” That is all very plain, and it is exactly what the Georgia agent does, except that he pays the farmer with “ the notes or the credit” of a Georgia bank. Now why docs the farmer take the notes in either ease ? Obviously and simply because he prefers the notes to the cotton ; and if the exehage serves lti3 convenience, surely we outsiders should not quarrel about it. If he wants the specie for the notes of either, he is, gen erally, obliged to go to the bank whence they were issued or pay a small premium for it. To a Geor gian, the mother bank in this State may be ad mitted to be a little nearer to him than that in Car olina, but this difference is too trifling to be seri ously thought of. The writer also makes a com parison of the Carolina and Georgia banks, not very flattering to the former, and tells us that, in the late crisis, we were much nearer suffering heavy losses from trusting Carolina currency than we ever imagined. We should feel obliged to him for not revealing to us the danger till it has past, since it would have produced a great deal of un necessary alarm. He may be right, however, in the assertion, but what guaranty have we that in the next revulsion the tables will not be turned. Besides, in what way is it to be imagined that the policy of discrimination will avoid such a result ? Or is it contended that a doubtful should be taxed higher that a solvent institution ? Let us have a. reason! Women Natural Orators. This passage occurs in a work recently publish ed abroad on the “Art of Public Speaking Women naturally speak better than men. They express themselves more easily, more vividly, and with more arch simplicity, because they feel rapid ly, more delicately. Hence the loquacity with which they are reproached, and which is an effect of their constitution and temperament. Hence there are so many women who write in an admirable and remarkable manner, although they have stud ied neither rhetoric nor logic, and even without knowing grammar or orthography. They write as they speak; and they speak pretty much as the birds sing, and their language has the same charm. Add to this the sweetness of their organ, the flexibility of their voice, and the variety of their intonations, according to the feeling which animates them; the nobility of their physiogno my, which greatly increases the effect of words, the picturesqueness of their gestures ; in short, the gracefulness of their whole exterior ; thus, al though not destined for orators by their sex or so cial position, they have all the power of tho ora tor, and all his success in their sphere, and in the circle of their activity ; for none better know how to touch, persuade and influenco, which, I think, is tho end and the perfection of eloquencc. ,, Pensacola News. The Pensacola Gazette says that Major Chase, President of the Pensacola Railroad, has made en gagements for the purchase of sufficient iron upon very satisfactory terms, provided tho city of Pen sacola will issue her bonds to the amount of $130,- 000—the said bonds to be endorsed by the Rail road company and used in the purchase of the iron. A number of citizens have already signed a petition to the city authorities, requesting them to issue the bonds immediately. The Gazette think* that the road will be completed from Pen sacolA to the 3tat* lino in the course of six or eight months. There Is an ttgly gap of seventy-fife miles between the State line and Greenville, for which we do not see that any provision has been made, but the friends of the road are sanguine in ! their belief of its early completion, all the way from Pensacola to Montgomery. The Gazette takes ground against the movement for the annexation of West Florida to Alabama, ! characterizes it as “sinister,” and “absurd.” and ! thinks that no citizen of Florida with any State pride will countenance it.

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE TIMES. Exchange Hotel, Montgomery, Ala.) ! November, sth 1858. j Dear Times :—I avail myself of a leisure mo ment to say a word for you of things over this way. Your sister city is full of life, to the over flowing, with strangers awaiting the abatement of the Fever in Mobile and New Orleans, with vlst tors in attendance -you the State fair, with cot ton waggons, hacks, carriages and vehicles of all kinds, with city swells, and country boors, with beautiful women and sturdy men. The occasion of greatest interest to our State folks just now is tho Annual State Fair, which has been in progress all this week. I have taken several looks at the exhibition with much gratification, and am glad to say that tho most sanguine of its friends have been more than satisfied with the result. Tho stock is un usually fine. More noble horses are here on exhib ition than ever have been before. The cattle arc very much improved, quite a number of useful in ventions and discoveries in the mechanical and scientific departments evince a lively interest in this direction. Georgia industry is woll repre sented also. Upon the whole the success must certainly be the most cheering to the managers of the Fair. I cannot in this passing notice particu larize, nor is it necessary. East Alabama, however, over a large portion of which your Journal ex tensively circulates, has a large list of contributor The Tuskegee Methodist Female College had a most beautiful exhibition of paintings, drawings and designs. Some designs of wall-paper, carpet ing, dress patterns &c.. show an entirely new and distinct feature in the organization of this excellent Institution, and should be so encouraged as to in duce further energy in that direction. Anew chemical disinfectant of Prof. Darby’s took a premium, and had a most thorough report from a committee of scientific gentlemen. Mr. Ferrell, of Chambers, exhibited a full blooded Morgan Stallion, which came so near getting the first premium that the committee could not help but make most honorable and hearty mention of ifc. Mrs. Flournoy, of Macon, took a premium on a quilt. Mrs. Sayre, of Tuskegee, one on a bead ed fruit stand. A lady from Barbour, one for hair embroidery and leather work, and several others too numerous to mention. The tournaments were admirably performed.— This feature attracted much attention from all. I must refer you, however, to the papers for more particular accounts of them. The election of officers of the Society on Thurs day night, resulted in the re-elioosing of all the old officers, who were living or residing in the State, a result most indicative of their harmonious action and confidence in their abilities. Col. Isaac Crom, of Greene county, President. Dr. N. B. Cloud, of Montgomery, Secretary. Col. Chas. T. Pollard, of Montgomery. Treasu rer, with an Executive Committee, and one Vice- President from each county in the State. The Prizes were distributed Friday at 12 o'clock, in the presence of an immense concurse, at the Amphitheatre, and although everybody did not get one, there was general satisfaction given. But I will not weary you. As ever. * PEN DRIVER. The Augusta Constitutionalist says, that Judge Magrath, of the United States Court, in Charles on, recently decided that theliabilty of a steamboat company on freight does not stop when the goods on freight are landed on a wharf. The shipper is compelled to see that the produce is delivered to the consignee or his order. In case the shipper cannot find or deliver the goods to the consignee, it is his business to have the goods sent to a ware house or placed in responsible hands subject to the order of the owner or consignee. Tho yellow fever is on the decrease at Gal veston. On the 25th ult. there were two deaths from this disease, and on the 27th the same num ber. At Houston the yellow fever deaths for the week ending 26th ult., were twenty-five; on the 25th there were four deaths, and on the 2-lth two. The whole number of cases in the city at last dates was sixty-five. Imports of Dry Goods at New’ York. —The Journal of Commerce states that the total imports of dry goods at New York for October is $565,722 greater than for the corresponding period of last year, and only $lBO,Bll lees than for October, 1856 The imports thrdWn upon the market, including those withdrawn from warehouse, exceeded the to tal of last year, in a proportion still greater than the direct receipts. A Caution. —The State Department having reason to suppose that irresponsible persons in England have induced parties in this country to forward remittances thither for the recovery of estates to which they are led to believe them selves entitled, cautions persons to whom such representations may be addressed to satisfy them selves of their correspondents before they forward money or otherwise commit their interests to them. The Sugar and Cotton Crops in Rapides. The Alexandria Democrat, of the 27th ult., says: “The sugar made in this parish is unusually fine. Owing to the continued dry weather the cane is very ripe, and consequently yields a beautiful quality, but less in quantity. Some, however, will average a hogshead and a half to the acre, while others less than a hogshead. By far the largest portion of the cotton is gathered. Avery general and heavy rain fell on Sabbath morning, and again last night.” Hon. W. M. Slaughter, of Dougherty—Remarks. Remarks upon the Resolution of Mr. Briscoe, expressing it as the opinion of the Senate that a new organization was necessary, before proceed ing to business at the present session. Mr. Slaughter said : The question presented by this Resolution underwent considerable, discussion in the Senate at the last session. There were two points connected with the subject, and growing 6ut of the amended constitution upon which a differ ence of opinion was expressed by members of the Senate. First, whether the Legislature elected in 1857, could hold the first regular annual session under the amended Constitution ? and in the se cond place, whether anew organization would be come necessary before proceeding to business ? Since the adjournment, the Governor, with a view to his own guidance, has submitted these questions to the Judges of the Supreme Court, who, respond ing to the request, have given their opinion ad verse to the position maintained, and sought to be made a precedent by this resolution. They decide that we assemble under the organization of 1857. The Governor has acted upon the advice thus giv en, and it remains for the Senate to say whether they will disregard it, and set up its own judgment in opposition to that of the Supreme Court. This opinion, it is true, has not the authority of a judicial decision; it does not profess to be an adjudication, it is merely advisory, but emanating from the highest appellate tribunal in the State, upon an important question of constitutional law, eminently a judicial question. I submit that it is entitled to great weight, and should be acqui esced in by the other department of the Govern ment. But really, the question, aside from the author ity of the Judges of the Supreme Court, presents no difficulties for solution. What is the reason assigned in this resolution for anew organization? Simply that the present is w new and distinct ses sion ; and not o. continuation of the last session of the Legislature. The conclusion is clearly a non sequitur. It certainly cannot be argued with an}’ show of reason, and in the face of express provis ions of the Constitution, that upon the final ad journment of the Legislature at its last session, its organization was dissolved, so as to require anew election of officers at a subsequent extra or regu lar session of the same body. The Constitution contemplates the continued existence and oflicial capacity of at least one of the officers necessary to the organization of this branch of the G eneral Assembly. I refer to that clause of the Constitu tion which, in certain contingencies, provides for the exercise of Executive functions by the Presi dent of the Senate. It follows from this that the adjournment of the Legislature does not work its dissolution as an organized body for the transac tion of business. But if the sine die adjournment did not produce this effect, what has transpired since to require anew organization ? Nothing of the kind is pretonded. The only clause in the Constitution upon the subject is the simple provision that the Senate shall elect its own officers. This power was exer cised at the last session ; we elected our officers, and they hold ky n Kuuiu CI'CAIOnSIVG Willi til a l of the Senate. The amended Constitution did not terminate our existence as a Senate, neither docs it close the official term of the officers necessary to organization. These are my views, and in accordance with them I should have raised a question of order up on a motion to go into an election. The President of the Senate, prompted by sentiments of delicacy whieh every Senator must appreciate, has resign ed his position, and thus imposed upon us the ne cessity of filling the vacancy, which has been done by his re-election. Further than this, we ought not to go : we should not establish the precedent sought by this resolution, and I trust it will not receive the sanction of the Senate. National anti States Rights Democracy. Words are things, and the most important things —since by words all principles are defined, and all events are directed and governed. For ideas rule the world. What, then, are National and States Rights democracy? According to Senator Hammond’s exposition of the meaning of these words, everybody in the South ought to be a Na tional democrat, since all must surely esteem and sympathize with those in the North who uphold the great principles of tho constitution by which the rights of the South are guaranteed. We, therefore, beg leave to lay before our readers our conception of the meaning of these W'>rds. ■ffhc distinction between National and State Rights democrats arose out of the Mexican war, and the territory acquired by that war. When the war commenced there were but two great par ties in the country —the democratic and the whig parties. The abolitionists were a mere faction.— As soon as the war closed (and indeed at its com mencement.) a schism in the democratic party took place as to the territories which it was antic ipated, would be acquired. The freesoil party, headed by Wilmot in Pennsylvania, and Martin Van Buren in New York, insisted on it, that sla very should, by act of Congress, be excluded from all the territories acquired by the war. This par ty mastered all the legislatures of the North, and passed resolutions supporting this policy. They contended that Congress was omnipotent—was sovereign in our territories. The Southern states men took the State Rights view of this question. They contended that the territories belonged to the States, that the States wero sovereign over them, and that Congress was only the agent of the States, to protect the equal rights of all the sov ereign States in our territories. Here began the distinction between National and Sjtnte Plights democracy. The distinction was pushed still fur ther, when the question of secession by the South ern States arose, in consequence of the ejection by Congress of the South from our territory in Cali fornia. The same line of argument which denied the rights of the States in our territories, denied them also in the States. The National democrats of the South—Mr. Cobb in Georgia, Mr. Foote in Mississippi—and others, contended that the gov ernment of the United States was national and sovereign, and that the States were subordinate, and had no right to secede from the Union. The State Rights democrats, on the contrary, contend ed that the States alone were supremo and sove reign in the Union, and that the General Govern ment was the mere creature and agent of the States; and consequently that each State, as a party to the constitutional compact, had a right to judge of its infractions, and secede from the Union. The ma jority of the democratic party in Mississippi, Georgia, and other States, wei-e State Rights democrats or secessionists; but they were defeat ed by the conjunction of the National democrats and whigs, who formed a sort of Union party for the purpose. After the secession controversy was ended, there was a still further development of the terms National and State Rights democrats peculiar to South Carolina, between those who favored and those who opposed tho State going into national conventions to nominate candidates for President and Vice President of the United States. South Carolina had ever refused to go into such conven tions, on the high ground that they have the ef fect. first , to lower the States by defeating their separate and independent action, in selecting the executive officers of the Union as the constitution contemplates; an d second, that they defeat one of the express compromises in the constitution be tween the larger and smaller States, by which ah the States (if the electoral colleges fail to elect the Presideut) vote as equals in the House of Rep resentatives in electing the Presideut. Such arc the principles, as wo understand them, which distinguish National from State Rights democrats : and they are supposed to lead to a ’ very different policy as regards the Union. As the term implies, Xational democrats aie sup posed to have national party affinities or national sympathies and feelings inconsistent with the rights or safety of the South. State Rights dem ocrats. on the contrary are supposed too to look much to disunion. 4V e think, however, that the above contains a fair statement of the origin and meaning of National and State Rights demo crats. Far ourselves, we intend to embrace nationality neither in fact nor in name. We are of the old State Rights school of politics, and when acting with the democratic party, we are State Rights democrats. — Charleston Mercury. Mortality In Cities.

The delegation which proceeded to Bran denburg, on the ferry boat, had an interview with the citizens of that place, and returned home yes terday morning. They found that the people of Brandenburg were laboring under no undue ex citement. and acted in the matter with perfect cool ness. The understanding was that Bell would be i tried in Brandenburg, and reasonable bail taken. Messrs. Cannon and Austin, and two other gentle men of New Albany, remained to accompany Bell home. Manifesto of Nicaragua against FlUibusters. Senor A. ,T. De Yrissari, now residing at Brook lyn, has issued a notice of the regulations which have been adopted by the Government of Nicara gua for keeping out filibusters who may attempt to enter the country in the disguise of colonists.— No one, whatever may he his nationality, will be allowed to enter or land without exhibiting his passport. If from any Spanish American State, his passport must he signed by a Secretary of For eign Relations. Iffrom the United States, it must be signed by the Nicaragua Minister, Charge, or Consul-General. All who attempt to enter with out the prescribed authentication, will be treated as suspected persons. Neither emigrants, colo nists, nor through passengers will be allowed to enter at any other places than San Juan del Norte and San Juan del Sur. All vessels arriving are to be visited by an officer charged with the duty of enforcing the regulations. Chess Matters. —Morphy is expected home before the close of the present year, and it is un derstood that the chess players of New York and Brooklyn intend to give him an appropriate recep tion. What its nature will be has not yet trans pired. Recent advices from Paris state that the Emperor Napoleon has requested Morphy to give a specimen of his blindfold playing at the Tuille ries, before the ladies of the Imperial Court, and J <*-- A *•---• - -wt Trj tllU young American at the odus of a rook. There is now reason to believe that before leaving Paris, Morphy will have a chance to contend with Herr Von der Lasa. the great chess analyst and player, who has recently left Rio Janeiro, where he has acted as Ambassador from one of the German courts for some years past. The meeting of these two chess masters will excite great interest among the lovers of this beautiful game. Beautiful Extract. —A delicate child, pale and prematurely wise, was complaining, on a hot morning, that the poor dew-drops had been too hastily snatched away, and not allowed to glitter on the flowers, like other happier dew-drops, that live the whole of the day through, and sparkle in the moon light, and through the morning, on wards to noon day. “ The sun,” said the child, “has chased them away in his heat, or swallowed them up in his wrath.” Soon after came rain, and a rain-bow ; whereupon his father pointed up wards, “ Sec,” said be, “ there stands thy dew drops gloriously reset, a glittering jewelry in the Heavens ; the clownish foot tramples on them no more. By this, my child, thou art, taught, that what withers on the earth blossoms again in hea ven.” Thus the father spoke, and knew not that he spoke prefiguring words; soon after the deli cate child, with the morning brightness of his ear ly wisdom, was inhaled, like a dew-drop, into hea ven !
