A German, who cams to Paris to .‘earn the fashions and mode of the capi tal, heard the conversation often turn on the advantages of gas and its preferable ness to oil, but be did not venture to be tray his ignorance by asking for explana tions.

Mr. Claveav, the Clown, advertises that he will have a 'fit To rn now night—and will give his patrons fits of laughter We suppose, he means that he will take a benefit, to-morrow i evening, being the last night of his appearance this season. We understand, Mr. Palmer and bis corp?, both of men and horses, will leave on the Rail Road junday morning for Charleston, to go through in the day. What think you of that ? Play here on Saturday night, and Monday night in Charleston, moving a whole Circus! No, we beg pardon—we believe they will leave us the House, to ornament the city, and preserve the interest of its neighborhood, % That is classic ground. • The preface to Col. Crockett’s Auto-ldogra jhy, which will be published in a few days, contains this motto : I leave this rule for others, when I am dead; Be always sure you’re right— then go ahead ! > A very large party, reported to consist of .200 | ersong, are expected to arrive this evening on the Rail Road from Charleston. They intend to come through in a day, bringing the morning papers and supping in Augusta.. We under stand that application has already been made to a< commodate 60 at one of our Hotels. They have chartered the beautiful new Locomotive, the Edgefield, described to be “the most effi cient one of her weight in the linked States, and as different from the other Engines as a beautiful Barbery. r qrsait is from aßufftlo.” The Edgefield vas built by Messrs. Stephenson and Soos England. A meeting, it will be peiceived, has been call ed in Savannah to express the opinion of the citizens there on the suited of the >emoval of the deposits. We do not know, that that sub ject will be touched in the meeting called for To-morrow in this place. We are rather incli ned to suppose that it may not, from the call for the mee(jn*, which contemplates a memorial to Congress on the subject of the pecuniary pres sure, anil praying that body to devise some means to remove lit, |by either reefiartering the present U. S. Bank with modifications or creating a new one. We believe, that few, if any, whose names aie to the call for the meet ing, consider the removal of the deposits itself the cause of the pecuniary difficulties, more than the supposed presumption, which it has increas ed, that the U. S. Bank will not be rechartered, thus withdrawing the salutary control, which that institution has exercised over the uniformi ty and metallic soundness of the national cur rency, and lessening commercial credit by the instability and want of confidence, which must be the attendants of disconnected State Bank operations. At any rate, we are assured, that no political or party feeling will be mixed up with the subject matter for consideration. It is to stand on its own naked merits. A pleasant writer in the Senline! describing his Rail Road trip to Charleston, censures w hat we know must have been accidental at the foot of the Inclined Plane. When the car was at tached to the rope below, he savs they had to wait, till a lubbcily negro ran to the top of the bill to tell them that all was ready. A flag is invariably hoisted for this purpose, and its ab. sence at this particular time must, therefore, have been entirely acddenfal, and not the want of intelligent contrivance in the Rail Road ar rangements We say flag, thouph we proba bly dignify it too much; but smutted as it'was. when we saw It, it had full as much of onr hom age as some other flags we have seen on the Same s de of the river. £fORTHE GEORGIA COURIER.} INTERESTING TO THE AFFLICTED.

Extract of a letter from one of our Representa tires in Congress, da’ed Waskinglon-CUy,3d,Feb 1834. The view you have taken of the Deposit Ques tion is the cerrect one, and we anderstand it i here. The real questionis re charter or ne re charter—and Mr. Binney decidedly the ablest friend the bank has in either house, unless Webs ter should be his superior,—as also, Mr. Webs ter havte both admitted that the removal of the 9 millions of deposits, or of twice that sum from the Bank, Cuuki not per se have produced, the distress which is alleged to exist in the Com raercial cities, but in order to do away the effect of this admission, which they were bound to make in order to sustain their own characters foi truth and cand ur, they say that the distress arises from the want of confidence in the cur rency and money market, arising from the fear of the community, that the Bank, will not be re chartered and thereby the uniformity and sta bility of the currency will be destroyed—and from this, they argue that the Bank must be re chai tered or some other of a similar character formed. The whole of their argument against the removal is based upon the ground of a viola .tion of the faith of the Nation, and the effect produced by the removal upon the question of recharter. In Senate there is a majority of about eight against the administration, but we shall have a majoiity of 10 to 20 agaiust a return of the de posits in the House. ‘ VVc had a vote this evening which, though on a mere question of reference, was a party vote, and a pretty good test, aud our majority was 16. It arose on a memorial from lhe merchants of New York, upon the subject of distress in the money market. The friends of the bank wished to send it to a select committee, and we wished • to send it to the committee of Ways and Means, where all the oth r petitions and memorials of like character had gone—and we succeeded as above stated. . ‘ f • Upon the deposite qaestion the vote ®f Geor gia will De thus—for a return of the». deposttes— Wilde, Gamble, Foster, Clayton, 4—against— Wayne, Gilmer, Coffee, Jones, Schley, 5. I have investigated the bank question with some attention since I have been here, and am decidedly of opinion that Congress has no pow er to grant a charter to such a bank, and be lievingso, I shall of cour e vote against it,—ora return of the deposites—and even if I believed th j tank constitutional 1 should vote against a return of the deposites, because the l ank has acted in «u h a corrupt and shameful manner with, lhe funds in their hands—and used its I powers to force the people to compel their repre sentntives to grant t e charter. The whole movements of the friends of the bank here, and elsewhere, are direct, d to that object. The bank does not in fact care a sixpence for the de posites—and although when the question first came, up here the advocates of the bank pi e tended to be very anx.ous for a speedy decision; it was the very thing they did not, and do not want Their object is, to ke» p the matter under •lebate here, to send their speeches out to the people, and at the same time, for the bank to turn its screws harder and harder on the com munity, until, by both operations, they can force the people to call on their Representatives to renew the charter. This is the whole philoso phy of the game that is played here, and when it will end, no one can tell We have been de bating for two months, and I fear we shall be at it for two months more.

A The form of GRAND TURK is unexception able. HissizeisS feet 1$ inches, his action remarkably fine In short he is just such a Horse, as will meet the approbation of all good judges in every respect. Jhe present owners purchased him on Long-Island last si-miner, be lieving, from his pei formances, and blood and from lhe recommendation of a great cumber of go'jd judges, that there is no Horse which could .be procured that would do more for our Stock. His performances are too numerous for an advertisement, although he never was trained bu‘ for one year, owing to.his having belonged previously to a professional gentleman not con nected with the Turf. Suffice it to say that *he has beaten Celeste,’Catnirla, DeWitt Clinton, Albert, Richards Ariel, True Blue, Angeline (the full sister of Ariel) and others; he took a heat from O’Kelly the brother of Ariel, at Eagle Course, N.
