Georgia legislature.
The bill to provide for the permanent
endowment of tins University, and to
appropriate monies for the erection of a
new Collegiate Edilicc at Athens, passed
the House of Representatives on Tues
day last—on the following day a motion
to reconsider the minutes as respected

rejected on Wednesday last—yeas 35—
nays 55—Yesterday the House of Re
presentatives had under consideration a
bill to incorporate a Company for estab
lishing a Turnpike lluad from Athens to
Augusta.
One of the most important measures
now before the Legislature is a lull in
troduced in Senate to regulate the rate of
interest between our Slate Banks & the
Branch Bank of the U. States at Savan
nah—V, e subjoin the report made by
the joint committee on Banks, and also
the bill prepared by them.
The joint’ committee on Banks, to whom
have been referred the expositions of the
Bank of the State of Georgia, the Plan
ters' Bank, and the Rank of Darien,
Rr.ponr :
That they have, upon a careful exam
ination of the expositions of the state
and condition of the aforesaid Banks,
found that their capacity to meet their
engagements, at this time, rests upon the
bn=is of a metallic capital of very con
siderable amount. The two former have
on hand specie sufficient, to enable them
to retire, at any time, a very large pro
portion of their bills now in circulation ;
and as to llte latter, although there is a
'greater disparity between the amount of
specie in the vaults, and the sum of its
bills in circulation, yet there is no rea
son to doubt its soundness. The Bank of
Darien has been under the necessity of
furnishing the greater part of the medium
of circulation in Georgia, for some time
past, and to this circumstance is to ho at
tributed the difference in its slate and
condition, in this regard, from the other
two Banks abovementioned.
Your committee ask leave further to
report, tint the State of Georgia, by the
establishment of her Banking institu
tions, had two great ohjerls in view—■
Hie one, to furnish to her citizens, a safe
and convenient medium of circulation,
to the exclusion of the bills of the Banks
of other stales ; the other, to enable her
to have the funds of the stale profitably
invested in Bank stork.
Rotlt of those objects have either en
tirely failed, or hav° been considerably
abridged, by the operations of the Office
of the Bank of the United States at Sa
vannah ; which, iri the opinion of your
committee, having been intruded upon
the State of Georgia without her con
sent, is an interference with her sove
reignty as an independent state.
Because the aforesaid olboe of the
Bank of the United Slates, located at
Savannah, did, fora long time, refuse to
issue its hills, and by accumulating the
hills of the Slate Banks, as the deposito
ry of the revenue of the United States,
and by othnr means perfectly within its
power, has not only taken from the state
her medium of circulation lor her valua
ble products •. hut by frequent and re
peated demands for largo sums in specie
upon the State Banks, had well nigh
drained their vaults, thereby threatening
their destruction, and compelling them,
in order to meet the exigency, to curtail
their discounts, insomuch as to deprive,
the state and the individual stockholders
•of their usual mid expected dividends.
In such a stale of things, your com
mittee would advise no step which might
array the state against the authorities of
the United States, nr injure the credil
of the bills of the Banks of the State of
Georgia. They would advise all collis
ion ivitil the Bank of the United States
to be eschewed if possible. But n pro*
•ard to the safety of their own in
states' Bank or its officers or agents, up-
°n giung sixty days previous notice of
such intention.
And \our committee confidently hope
that public opinion will hear the State in
stitutions out, in such a course of conduct,
as none other seems, in the mind of your
committee, to he calculated to save the
slate institutions, eventually from utternn-
nihilation under existing circumstances,
to the great injury of tlu state, aud of the
individuals, who are, or mnv he, stock
holders, in the uloresaid Banking estab
lishments.
A BILL
lo he entitled an act to regulate interest
between the Bocal Banks 'which now are,
or hereafter may he established tit this
State, and the Bank of the United States,
or any of its Branches,
Whereas, from the advantages which
llio Branch Bank of the United States,
located in the City of Savannah, has over
the State Banks in Georgia, in conse
quence of the receipt of large sums of
bills of said Banks on uccount of the gen
eral government, and otherwise, they
are in the habit of demanding specie or
other settlements for interest fac. on ac
count ol said hills, and which practice,
it is believed, if persevered in, will sap
the foundations of said Banks ; for reme
dy wv hereof:
Be it enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the State of Georgia
tn General Assembly met, and it is hereby
enacted by the authority of the same, That
from and after the day of
next, it shall not be lawful for the Branch
Bank of the United States at Savannah,
or any other Branch or Bank of the Uni
ted States, by their officers, agents or
attorneys, to recover or receive, from a-
uy of the local State Banks in Georgia,
or any of their Branches, in the event
of their presenting to said Bank or
Branches, or uny of them, the bills is
sued by said Banks, and being refused
payment in specie, and a resort bad to a
suit in law, any other or greater sum
than per cent, interest per annum,
from the date of demand and pro'est, un
til the day of payment ; and on the other
hand it shall not be lawful for any of the
local Banks in Georgia to recover and
receive from the Bank of the United
States or any one of its Brandies, which
now are, or hereafter may be establish
ed in tlm United Slates, any other or
greater sum than per cent, inter
est, per annum, as above mentioned.
And be it further enacted by the authori
ty aforesaid, That whenever a demand
for specie may be made of the local in
stitutions aforesaid, or the Bank of the
United Slates, or any one of its branches,
and they have reason to believe that the
person making such demand is the Agent
of the Bank of the United States or’sbme
one of its Branches, or of the local
Banks, ns the case may ho, the Presi
dent or Chshier of the Bank on which
such demand shall be made, may
quire an oath to be made and taken in
writing by such person, before some
Judicial or Magisterial officer, discover
^ hieh bill shall be drawn up by (Im
party requiring it to be sealed, mid by
him be submitted to the opposite party
lor his approval or correction : if the
parlies cannot agree upon the facts, then
the Judge shall make the corrections to
suit the truth of the case ; which hill
shall be signed and sealed by the said
Judge, and he inclosed in an envelope,
across the seal of which, the said Judge
shall sign his name officially. The pack
et shall be then addressed to (ho Clerk
of the assembled Judges ; the name of
the parties, and the description of the
case, shall he stated on the said envel
ope : It shall then be handed to the par
ty, or liia counsel tendering the said hill,
who shall deliver the same to the Clerk
of the said Court of assembled Judges,
at least four days before the opening of
said Court: upon the reception of which
by the said Clerk, he shall administer
the oath to the bearer thereof, usually
administered in cases of interrogatories
ami commissions, and endorse the same
on the said packet. The said Clerk
shall, on or before the opening of tin;
Court, docket the said cases so returned
lo him in the manner aforesaid. It shall
ho the privilege of either party to open
the said packet, after the same shall
have been received as aforesaid.
Every bill sealed as aforesaid, shall
operate as a supersedeas ; provided the
party requiring the same shall give good
and sufficient security for the payment
of the eventual condemnation money,
and pay the costs already incurred.
In every case where the law arising
out of the facts, submitted in manner
aforesaid, shall be declared by the as
sembled Judges, to be against the party
requiring the bill to he sealed, and the
Judges shall bo of opinion the same was
intended for delay, they shall, by their
Clerk, so certify, and mulct the party in
a penalty, not exceeding ten per centum
on the eventual recovery, in every civil
case in law or equity.
In every ease submitted in manner
aforesaid, either civil or criminal, the
determination thereof shall be entered
upon the minutes of the said Court of
assembled Judges, and shall be cortitied
under the hand and seal of the said
Cleric, upon application by either party
to the Superior Court of the County
where the rase was instituted, or is de
pending. The presiding Judge of which
shall he bound thereby.
That the said Court of assembled
Judges shall have power to appoint their
Clerk, and also to requite the attend

the County where the Court shall be
held ; aud shall also have power lo
make rules for the orderly conducting
of the hu«iness. and fixing the compen
sation of the Clerk and Sheriff; which
shall be paid by the losing pnrty.
All bills of exception shall Ijo deter

Your committee therefore recommend,
that a law shall he passed, establishing a

pj ;)i below the present legal rate ofintcr-
nst'of the State, and so low as to prevent

tee ask leave to report the bill herewith
prrsented as a part of this report.
And further, your committee recoin
mend, that while the State Bank* shall

prive individuals from the same privi
leges and advantages in obtaining specie
or interest, as now exist by the laws of
this state, but this regulation as to inter
est, is intended solely to govern the de
mands which may hereafter be made by
the Bank of the United States or any one
of its Branches, on the local Banks of
Georgia, and vice versa.
And be it further enacted, That all laws

as the same may militate against this act,

Q5® In noticing tile late Communication
of ini.- Governor of this State to the Legis
lature, the editors of the National Intelligen
cer pertinently remark, “There is some-
“ thing novel in the Governor of a state dc-
“ a mincing the attempts to “ disparage” his
“administration, and in the terms in which
“ Bis Excellency candidly eommubieatcs to
“ tile members of til's Legislature his opio-
“ inn of their immediate predecessors.”—
The best excuse that can he mad.: for tile
Governor is perhaps that which was offered
i few days ago by one of his liit-nds, as an
apology for his far-famed hook, that “ Go
vernor Clark did not un ite it, and therefore
he should not be censured fur all the error it
contains.”
For- Tiir. RECoanF.n.
A Plan for altering the Judiciary System.
Let the Judges of the Superior Courts
assemble tit the seat ol Government,
once or twice in every year ; who shall
have power to declare what the law' is,
on any statement of facts submitted to
them, in any case, wherein a bill ot ex
ceptions shall he sanctioned by the Judge
presiding at Circuit. To have, power
ilso, of creating an uniform mode ol
practice, in the several Superior Courts
in this State.
The Judges thus assembled, or any
three of them, shall hear and determine
such matters of law only, as may come
before them, by bill of exceptions as
aforesaid : And it shall be tbo privilege
of the party! or parties, to be heard be
fore the said Judges thus assembled, by
themselves, or counsel, or both.
That during the progress of any case,
in any Countv of this State, in the Su
perior Court thereof, or after the deter
mination thereof, by verdict or other
wise, on motion for a new trial, or in
arrest of judgment j if any question ot
law shall arise, and thn Judge shall de
termine the same, the party aggrieved,
or hi* counsel, shall, as ot right, require
the saiil Judge to seal a bill of excep
tions, which shall state the case fully
and at large, the facts proven, the ques-
— ri — and the de-
lions or points of law made
termination of the Court.
ed as aforesaid, and (lie same shall not
lie delivered in manner and form
aforesaid, to the said Clerk of the Court
of assembled Judges, and dint proof
thereof appearing by the certificate of
the said Clerk, the case shall proceed in
like manner as if no bill had been seal
ed.
The above plan, is very respectfully sub
milted to the Representatives of the people
of this State, liy an humble individual, from
an honest conviction tlint the change of the
Judiciary proposed, or something similar to
it, if made, would tend to a greater security
of our rights. It is believed n ehangn of the
above description could he effected without
altering the Constitution.
Tin: present imperfect state of our Jodi
ciary, has been the subject of deep regret to
those of our citizens who have thought
calmly on the subject. It lias engaged deep
ly the attention of many of our wisest Le
gislators. If I mistake not, a plan not en
tirely' dissimilar to the one now proposed
was brought forward by the late F. Grant
land, Esq. then a Senator from Baldwin
County, hut failed, by one vets only. It
would seem the present state of tilings can
not long exist. It calls loudly for tile cor
recting hand of the Legislature. As mat
ters now stand, we scarcely know whether
we have any rights at all. Certain it is, vfe
have no certain measure or standard of jus
tice.
An attendance upon our Superior Courts,
must convince any individual of the truth of
the above rein.irks: lie must observe the
frail tenure by which we hold our property,
our liberty, our lives. I do not mean any
reflection upon thn Judges. I have no in
clination to assail them ; for many of them
1 have the moat profound regard : tint it is
a truth they will readily .assent to, that the
Court is uniformly called upon to decide
the most ab“lrnse and difficult questions of
law upon the spur of tile moment, without
that deliberation aod research which is so
essentially necessary to the formation of a
eon act legal opinion.
In the interpretation and construction of
nor statute laws, we find almost as many
judicial opinions ns there an* circuits. Tin
citizen scarcely knows Ins rights, or when
his property is secure. There are six cir
cuit! and six Judges possessing independent
and final jurisdiction, and are supreme i,
their circuits. Is not this a hydra in gov
eminent, subject to contradiction and con
fusion ? Can we he safe or secure unde
such a statu of things? And is it not true,
that tins uncertainty of law is calculated to
produce the most miserable results?
The worthy Senator from Laurens, lias
brought forward a resolution, requiring the
Judges to alternate, and to assemble at the
seat of government, to establish a uniform
mode of practice throughout the State.
This, it is conceived, will remedy the evil:
With deference to his opinion, I do not think
so. I believe this plan was once attempted,
without producing tin: benefits he appears
to anticipate. I would not, however, lie tin
derstood a*arraigning his motives: I know
him too Well, to believe lie. would propose
.my measure that would not in its effect* be
beheficinl: hut 1 mean to In: understood—
the measure is not adequate to the anticipa
ted result. That honorable gentleman, and
indeed every other individual, upon reflec
tion mi st be convinced there is hut one wav
to produce a uniform mode ol practice ; mid
that is, by having questions of law examined
and adjudicated by all the Judge*assembled
together, w here they can hear nrgunient, in
terchange ideas, and determine tin: law aris
ing from any given statement of fuels, upon
tlu: production of authorities. Ear trhnt is
the practice, but the laic. It is from the law
alone, tliut the Court* derive their practice.
That practice which has not its tourcu in
law, ought not to be sanctioned.
The want of a uniform practice, is not the
only evil entailed upon us by tile present
Judiciary system. There are others of
much greater moment, and, to my mind,
much more olnrmlug.
They may be classed under the following
heads:
1st. The shameful hurry with which jus
tice. is obliged to lie administered.
id. The great uncertainty of the law, oc
casioned by the present system.
3d. The temptations to the corruption of
judicial integrity now afforded.
4th. Tile danger to tie apprehended, from
want of capacity in the presiding Judge.—
And,
Sill. The absolute despotic power with
which a single Judge is clothed—wholly in
compatible with the principles of our republi
can institutions.
The consideration of these evils will form
the subject of another paper. Let it suffice
for the present to remark, that “experience
is the school of Wisdom,” and as it regards
our Judiciary, many useful ami beneficial
lessons have been taught; it only remains to
lie observed, whether the people of this Slate
will profit by the instruction.

Another Attempt lo Ro’u the Mail.
FnEnEiucK3nima, Nov. 14.
On Monday morning last, about half
past one o’clock, ns the driver of the
mail cart between Stafford court-house
anil this town was ascending the hill a
short distance this side of Potomac Run,
lie was fired upon by some person whose
design evidently was both rnurdcr and
rubbery. Two halls passed through the
linen covering of the cart, directly over
the head of the driver, and a third be
tween his legs, lodging in the mail bag,
where it was found after its arrival at
this place. An obstruction for stopping
tho horses had been thrown across the
road ; but tho driver whs fortunate
enough to force a passage through the
woods, and thus escaped from tho power
of his assailant, whom lie describes as n
middle sized man, wearing a dark frock
coat. Two persons, from some suspi
cious circumstances, were apprehended
and brought before the Mayor on Mon
day ; but, on examination, their inno
cence of the crime was satisfactorily es
tablished. The frequent attacks upon
thn public mail of late, call aloud for the
adoption of some plan to protect it from
the violence of desperadoes on the high
way. If to accompany it with a guard
he deemed too expensive, a resort to
the old mode of conveying it through the
stages, would perhaps be preferable lo
the present system.

Extract of n letter, dated
St. AcousTt.vn, Sept. 25, 1821.
“ I arrived here last evening from St. Ma
ry's—This town is without commrren and
will continue so, I think. It is said to be
sickly, but as I suppose, about as sickly as
the Eastern Shore of Maryland, nndorcnra-
plaitits prevalent in countries subject to over
flow of water and that stagnant bilious and
othcr-lall levers.
All accounts agree, that the Allacheway
country, 10 ndles W. of this is the most fer
tile spot and finest tract of country in the U-
niteu Styes—It lies 8 or 10 miles beyond
\!ie St. Johns River, but the country on this
side of the St. Johns is sterile, except the
hammocks of Pablo, St. Paul’s creek, near
the mouth of St. John*—which tract of Pa
blo is now very sickly.
A rollon Limestone, as it is called, ex
tends from Allndieway past tho junction of
"halta tioclic and Flint, in latitude 31, to
the. Big Bend of Tennessee, and they ray all
of it is sickly and fertile; it goes near Alaba
ma Old Town, and where I crossed it,'lati
tude 33, it was praire, and ! (nought beauti
ful—and I doubt its being sickly. It is
mud) like the lauds of Lancaster county at
Lancaster Town, and may be entered at SI
25 per acre, to or 15 miles from hnat naviga
tion to the rivers leading to Pensacola and
Blakely.
The total import into the Kingdom for
the nine months expired, is 393,020 Pules :
should tho remaining import be 33,000 bales,
it will agree with our foregoing statement;
hut it is possible that it may exceed it by
8000 or 10,000 bales,and which would make
tho stocks in Ihr Kingdom at the dose of the
year about 300,000 bales.

have intelligence from Europe. The line
