J. A company Of counterfeiters have lately been detected in Franklin county, Alabama territory, and two of the men committed to prison. It ap pears that they had counterfeited upwards of 5560,000, on the state bank of North Carolina, the bank of New-York, amt 'the Potomitck bank.— These notes are said to be well executed, and re quire a minute examination to detect the imposi tion. The celebrated Alien Twitty, was con cerned in this manufactory. The Augusta Chronicle of the 16th inst. says “ All, except one, of the convicts who escaped from tliejpeniteiitiary, we are informed, have been taken.”—Burton was arrested in Buncombe county, Nurth-Carolina. At the late Sales of lots in Florence, Alabam- a, 284 were disposed of for 226,411 dollars.— The highest went at 83,500. The average price was nearly 8800 for half an acre of woods. The mail between Georgetown, S. C and Fay etteville, N. C. has been opened three times with in a few weeks past, by the use of false keys. We felicitate our fellow-citizens (says the St Stephens Halcyon) on the flattering prospects which are generally observed, throughout our territory ot abundant crops. Nathaniel Hazard and Samuel Eddy, esq’rs. are elected representatives to congress from the state of Rhode-Island. William Hendricks is re-elected a representa tive in congress from the state of Indiana. Rapid settlement.—The town of Franklin, more than 200 miles up *te Missouri, the centre of which was a cornfield in August, 1817, con tained nearly 200 houses, it is said in a letter from there, in June last!—The country around it is said to be excellent. Ranlcs.—Our astonishment at the extraordinary order recently promulgated by the United States bank, in. relation to the notes of its branches, had not subsided, when the branpli bank at New-York preo'nted us with one still more extraordinary, emanating, however, from the mother bank, in which it is ordered, that no note of the bank of the United States, or its branches, except those which are specially made payable at that office, would, after the 31st ult. be received at the New- York branch, unless the same be tendered in pay ment of debts ciue the United States. These ex traordinary orders have produced a sensation in tlie public mind, which cannot be allayed, without a full and satisfactory developement of the caus es that produced them.—Petersburg Republican. It is stated in an Ohio paper, that the notes on •me half of the Banks, sixteen in number, lately established in that state, are refused to be re ceived in payment of the state taxes. COMMV.VICaTION. GREAT SHOOTING MATCH. On Thursday the 10th inst. the great shooting match commenced near the boundary line be tween Baldwin and Jones counties, for a bet of 81500, which continued three days. The chal lenge was given by Mr. Ueeil of Milledgeville, that he with' two others would shoot against any three in Jones county, the rub in 61, one hun dred yards. The words were no sooner said than he was in a spirited manner, taken up by James K. T. Walton of Clinton. After depo siting the money, they fixed on the day above- mentioned. The three from Baldwin, were Messrs. Reed, Patten and Wooton ; and those from Jones, were Messrs. Mitchell, Weathers and Feagin, all respectable citizens, trho, toge ther with a vast coucourse of friends on both sides, met punctually at the time and place ap pointed. They accordingly commenced ; Wea thers against Patton, Mitchell against Wooton, and Fe&gin against Reed : for the first two days they all performed wonderH, they having struck the cross almost every shot; the third day the Clintonians seemed to be gaining ground, which was supposed to be a finesse of the Baldwin par ty, in order to divert the Clintonians—but it proved quite the reverse, for the Clintonians continued battering the cross every shot, until the number were fired. On counting the shot, it was given up by the managers in lavnr of the Clintonians—Mitchell having 16 shot a head of Wooton, Weathers 10 a head of Patton, and Feagin 3 ahead of Reed.— The Clintonians af ter getting the better of the Baldwin party, (who have been considered and justly merited the name of first rate rifle shooters! challenge the world.'.'
