A PG USTA,
MONDAY, DECEMBER 29.
gTXa, X 'ff-.. .'. . , I]
Il has been a subject of amusement to us so (
some time past, to observe to what shifts the op- j
position have to resort for plausible pleas to jus
tify the career against the administration. I
They take it for granted, that war is certain j
with France, and set to calculating the cost, j
their chances of success &c. with a laughable j
minuteness- Our neighbor of the Sentinel is
* rather more desponding than any of his com- I
peers. The French Navy, according to him, is j
most overwhelming—‘more than three times '
as strong as ours” and he thinks it most probable ,
in th® event of a contest, our gallant tars will
have their laurels lorn from their brows, and I
placed on those of the French. According to !
him, we>did nothing in the last war, when we ,
so signally whipped the Brittish. We will only
have hard fighting when we meet the French. |
The same patriotic foresight sets the Sentinel to . (
counting the loss we will sustain in theinterrup- j
tion of our peaceful relations with France—the j
dollars and cents it will cost the nation in every
way. Now we love to calculate the expences
of every undertaking both in public and private
life; but we hold national and individual honor
above all calculation. That the national honar
is compromitted by the conduct of France, it is
useless to argue—it does not admit of denial;
but it by no means follows, that like madmen
We should rush to arms, and listen to no expla
nation—no mitigating circumstances. We
commend the President’s spirit on the occasion
and the nation will sustain that spirit. France,
without any just reason, that we have seen or
heard, has trifled with her promise, viola
ted her word—disregarded a solemnly ratified
treaty. What was a patriotic Executive to say
other than what the President has said ? Could
the nation expect less —would it be satisfied
with less? We have no expectation that there
will be any interruption of our peaceful rela- '
lions. France has probably ere this, done us ;
the justice to which we were entitled by her so- |
lernn acknowledgment—and if not, she will
soon do, what she has too much sense not to see
is both reasonable and unavoidable. On this
subject, the following extract of a letter to the
Editor, dated Washington, Dec. 19, from a
friend who has every opportunity of being well
informed, rather strengthens our views:
“ Sutler not yourself to be carried by the op
position papers into the belief, that we are going
to rush headlong into a war or reprisals. The
President is right in his tone, and you will say
so, when the correspondence is sent to you,
which I will do as soon as it is printed, as also a
volume containing the discussion of the French
Chambers on the Treaty. But we shall sustain
the President’s tone, if his recommendation is
not carried out in extenso."
A Bill', says the Montgomery Advertiser,
granting a charter for a Rail Road to commence
at Columbus,Georgia, and to extend to the Flo- '
ridaline in a direction towards Pensacola, has
recently passed the Senate of our State, and will .
no doubt pass the House of Representatives.
Mr. Silsbee of Massachusetts, declines a re
election to the Senate of the United States, in
tending to retire to private Hie after the close j
of the present Session of Congress.
We are indebted to the Hon. John P. King, 1
Wm. Schley, Jas. M. Wayne, &c., for public '
documents, too numerous to particularize, for
’ which, .will please to accept our thanks.
It will be seen by eur congressional proceed
ings, says the Globe, that Mr. Polk, Chairman
of the Committee of Ways and Means, has in
troduced sonfe very important bills. One, regu
lating the deposites of the public money in the
State Banks. Another, providing for the sale
of the Government stock in the Bank of the
United Stites. A third, to repeal so much of
an act as requires the Bank of the United States
to perform the duties of Commissioner of Loans
for the several States.
QLD AND NEW.
No. 3.
It was not my intention, to have again allu
ded to the Merchants’ and Planters’ Bank, or
have replied to “Verily”—but as he has replied
to “Principle,” without answering a single ques
tion in point, in relation to the “old” or ‘ new,”
and continues to bottom his remarks, altogether
upon "wealth,” and justifying the course pursued
by the “old," and professing certain neie doc
trines which will appear below, I do not hesi
tate to say, that his claims to my "generosity," ■
have entirely ceased.
•> I leave it for those who are uninterested, to
decide, if a man, who would appeal to the “gen
erosity” of the injured, and at the same moment,
“laugh” at him with “impunity”— must not be
governed by principles foreign to those, who are
able to discriminate between juggling and strict
honesty. “Verily" goes on to say “ I hold my
self prepared to support the present directors in
their operations—they have purchased from the
old stockholders, the charter of the bank, with
out the entail of any of the sins charged upon
them —they have the capital to conduct it upon
real banking principles, and any thing which
‘Principle’ can bring forward, will never tend
to their injury. If the old conductors have
pocketed large gains from the timidity of the
bill holders, they can with impunity laugh at
any attempt of “Principle,” to induce the pub
lic to believe that they have acted dishonestly
towards the public.” Here you have the con
fessions and doctrines of “Verily”—judge of
them as you please.
I will only ask if “Verily’’ intends contin
uing the “real banking principles,” upon the
plan of the “old.” It is but fair, to presume he
does, as he justifies the “old”—if so, why the ne
cessity ofsooften alluding.to“c«piZaZ and wealth,”
if the “old” plan is to be adopted, but little “cap
ital" will be required at the start—a little might
produce much.
Again, how did these “large gains” slip into
the pockets of the “old”—are not there contri
butors enoughthat can guess.
Was it not done upon the same principle, that
produced some tens of thousands, that should be
found in the vaults of the bank, after redeeming
the few scattering bills that was in circulation,
when the “old” sold to the “new.” Did they
not sell the remaining assets of the bank, (I will
not say belonging to the bank,)and guarantee to
the “new" that they should produce a given
amount, say, an amount, much larger than the
circulation theq out ? Docs not this surplus in
bpcity, belong to the bill holders, who parted
with them at a loss, while they were kept in ig- |
norance of the “real value” of them ?
.Supposing we for a moment, lay this surplus
aside, as disputed property, would not the slock,
then, upon its own merits, be worth virtually no
thingl—Now was it not sold tor a very consider
able premium iu consequence of this surplus?
Permit me to ask who has again pocketed the
“ gains ?
The reader will please bear in mind that one
of the old stockholders and directors is still con
tinued a director, and, notwithstanding the
“ new dynasty,” he holds more than one seventh
ofthe whole stock of the Bank.— This statement
is made to show that the “ new dynasty ” is com
posed of a wtiarZure of the “ old and new.”
“Verily ” charges me with being very illiber
al, and he also accuses me of having a “thirst”
for “ revenge.” He says that “ nothing short of
the complete infamy of the ‘ old,’ and the de
molishment of the ‘ new dynasty,’ will satisfy
my revenge.”
“ Verily” is certainly entitled to his own
opinion, and so is the balance of the world.
He farther says, in a very authoritative man
ner, that “ courtesy on the part of ‘ Principle,'
should have at least induced silence.” I receive
these charges for what they are “ intrinsically
worth” Butthat there may be no mistake, let
it be “ distinctly understood ” that “ Principle ”
claims and exercises the privilege ‘both of
thought and Speech. Perhaps, if he was acting
under the influence of “ equivocal wealth ” he
might be less independent.
No. 4 is on the stocks, and will be completed
as soon as called for. PRINCIPLE.

I have heard loudly expressed, at your removal
from this place; and most sincerely do I wish
you prosperity, wherever you may think proper
to locate yourself.
With very sincere respect,

To Mr James K. Bollough.
Dear Sir —I received yours of date, apprising
me of your intention to remove from Savannah,
and establish a residence in Augusta; and while
I regret your loss to our community, in the im

which you have been so long engaged here, it
affords me much pleasure to offer to you my
humble testimony of your entire qualifications,

Education, to which your attention has been di
rected whilst in this city, as well as of your un
tiring and indefatigable perseverance in the ar

some ofmj' own children, formerly under your

this to have been the case with other parents
who have patronized your school. Wishing
your success and prosperity, and the use of this

OF THE
GREENVILLE MOUNTAINEER.
THE Subscriber, m assuming the Editorial
duties ofthe Mountaineer, deems it due to
its present Subscribers, as well as to those who
may in future become such, to issue a Prospec
tus,expressive ofthe principles which he designs
to advocate,. The Mountaineer has been long
and favorably known throughout the State, as
the firm and undeviating advocate of Republi
can principles—now professed and acted upon
by the Union Party. Its present Editor will
advocate and maintain, to the best of his abili
ties, those principles—firmly believing them to
be absolutely necessary to our “ preservation
a Nation, and to the perpetuation of our happi
ness as a people.” It is nst necessary to define
what those principles arc—lt is believed that
they are generally known and understood.
The maintenance of a weekly paper in the
country, is a difficult and a laborious task. It
will not be deemed exaggeration by those who
are initiated, to say, that not more than two
thirds of the money due to such a. paper can be
collected—audit takes time to collect even that.
The proprietor—Mr. Wells—is thankful for
the patronage already extended to him. He
feels gratified that the names of the most tal
ented and influential men of our Party can be
seen on bis subscription list. But, as it is the
only Union press in this large and populous
section of country, it is desirable that it should
have at? increased circulation. Wherever the
Mountaineer has been, it has invariably had in
fluence.—And it is earnestly requested of the
friends ofthe Union, in Spartangnrgh, Pickens,
Laurens, and particularly in Abbeville, toexert ,j%
thciaselves in aiding the circulation of the
TrJTu.
The Proprietor, if assisted in his generous
design, will obtain a new press, an entirely new
fount of type, and issue the Mountaineer on an
mlarged sheet of the finest paper. This cannot
be done, however, without the renewed exer
tions ofthe friends of our cause, in the different
sections ofthe State, in his behalf.
The Mountaineer will be devoted to Political
andjMiscellaneous matters, embracing the use
ful, entertaining and instructive. The proceed
ings of Congress will be published invariably—
And the Editor will use every-exertion in his
power to render the paper worthyofthe patron
age of the Union Public.
W. L. YANCEY.
TERMS.—The Mountaineer will be publish
ed once a week, on a super-royal sheet and
handsome type, atZArec dollars per annum tn ad
rance, or three dollars and fifty cents at the ex
piration of six months—though payment in ad
vance would be greatly preferred. Letters on
business must be addressed to.
