From the returns we hnvo seen, there is no doubt
of the election of AnTHUR I. Baubv, the demo
cratic candidate for Governor.
The democratic candidates for Congress also
have very fair prospects, and nil looks woll for the
cause in that State. We shall not publish the re-
tuns uadi wa get them in a definite form.
NORTHCAROLINA ELECTION.
The N. C. Standard of tho 7th is most sanguine
of a democratic victory In that State. Bynum.

ministration members, are doubtless elected.
Fort Mellon, a few days since, under the following
circumstances t—The intelligence of the Culoosa*
hatchuii murder was brought to Fort Mellon on tho
31*t ulu by a detachment of Dragoons. The In.
dians who were encamped in considerable number
at Fort Mellon, receiving rations &c , fled procipi
tatoiy at tho sight of amounted furco, and would nut
return to the Fort until the Dragoons bad started
bock for Tampa, a few of them then came la. and
announced that the Chief would visit the Fort on
the 3d day, with somo of his poople to procure pro*
visions. Accordingly, on tho afternoon of the 3d*
forty-five of them, men, women, end children came
into the Fort. At a preconcerted signal, the troops
run to their arms, closed tho gates, and rurruundod
tho Seminole*. They made somo efforts at cscapo,
and two men broke through tho line of soldiers. A
volley of musquetry was poured upon them, and they
boih dropped dead. Tho rcmaliidor then quietly
surrendered. The Stotmboat Charleston reached
the Fort two days aftertho capture, end the Indians
were at once transferred on board. On the 5lh
another Seminole with his wife and child were
captured, making tho whole amount of prltoaor* 46,
of whom fourteen were men. They reached Garay's
Ferey yesterday,
The most singular circumstance attending this
affuir, is, that tho Indians had got iutelligenco by a
runnel of the Coloosaliatchee massacre before
their capture. They were ignorant, however, that
the snmo news had been received at Fort Mellon*
and thought therefore, that th.-y might safely ro*
turn to the Fort to procure provisions 7 before thoy
left tiro vicinity. They maintained an appearance
of friendship throughout the whulo time, which we*
mot by appearances vquully sincere on tho pnrt of
tlie garrison, until tho proper moment came for un
deceiving them. The intelligence of tho Coloosa-
hatchcc affair had been brought to them on the 2nd
August by on Indian named Spanith John, resid
ing on tho Gulf coast. He was was one of the two
who attempted t*> escape when surrounded by the
troops at Fort Mellon, and was shot dead as above
stated. Ho had with him a largo amount of money,
and a number of porcussion caps, sucli as aro used
by the Dragoons. It is not impossible tbit ho was
not an actor in the Colo-sahatchco.

Dear Sir—Supposing you would like to know bow

Q3d ult. at 4 o'clock in the morning, after you left
tho trailing house nt Colooinhatcline, the Indians
simultaneously tracked Col. Homey’* camp and
the trading house, and killed probably 18 persons.
They got fourteen of Colt’s rifles, but only two
pounds of powder, all Dallam's goods, tents, provi
sions, die. Col. Harney escaped with only draw*
era and shirt, and has been expected at Tampa Bay
since the 27th, on which day tbe express arrived^t

boat on the day following. Fear* are entertained
for his safely, but we think it poatible be may have

We have never seen a more correct, and withal e
more uriginnl view of the questlun of Bunk Depot,
ites, than is taken by n writer signing himself
"Equal Rights," in tbe Alabama Journal. We have
not room for tho whole article—but shell be obliged
to content ourselves with an extract t Every orig-
inal Slate Rights man—every one of that parly who
opposed tbe Bank of tbe UniteJ States, must coin
cide with tbe writer, who it will bw sees is himsalf
evrn a "NulHfier"—yet a supporter of tbe Sub-Trea
sury:—
But as I intend to discuss thi* question nn State
Rights grounds, 1 claim to know of State Right*
men, in what article of their truly orthodox creed,
they find e warrant for applying public money, in
any shape or manner, to the private voce of bunks
or individuals f I do not sp»*ak of the morality of
doing that which every sentiment of justice troches
us might to be punished ns a high misdemeanor, but
I ask for any warrant in the comtitution which au
thorial public money to be applied to any other
then public purposes! Show me a State Kights
reading of that sacred instrument which authorize*
u* in yielding tobenkinf Institutions, eitabli-h d by
privnte individuals for t lie purposes of private gain,
the custody and use of the public monsy os u lund
on which to trade. Show me that tbe constitution
recognises bank agency for any purpose, or in fact,
any other agenc/ titan that of responsible public of
ficers. * Tbe very religion of thn Slate Rights par
ty, (to use an expression not Intended to bo impi-
ou*,) was an adherence to the republican maxim of
"equal rights to all, exclusive privileges Ui none."
It waa tho war cry, which with one voice, they rung
against the tariff. They pledged ’their lives to the
principle, "tliut no taxation was loo heavy for the
noccarary support oi tbe government, no gratuity to
privileged monopolist* so light as nutio demand the
resistance of freemen."
Their <tniggla will bo vnln,indecd,if the privileges
torn from the mnnufuctureia, nre now worn os tro
phies by the bank monopolist*.
It may be asked of the advocates of this system
of bank deposites, why it ialhat lha Goverment is
lo yield its revenues to banking, and not to tho rais
ing of cotton, wheat, and other products of tin* soil?
Is tbs one more meritorious than the other! Who
will give tbe preference to the signing and .tamping
of paper, over the making of bread! la wealth not
the rm*duct of labor atone! A nation of bonkers
would be as wortlili**nT* a nation of stockjobbers.
With immense p *wer of accum.-l uing the proceed*
of labor, neither have tbe power of producing a
single article of real value. Girporate powers and
privileges give to bank notes a value heyund the
note* of any individual, or number of individual* in
the community, although every one knows that
banks promise to pay un demand, amount*, which
if preaentrd, would be far above their available
means. With one million of gold end silver in tlieir
vault*, they will ugreu to pay on demaud three mil
lion uf dull *r*. Tbeir promise tn pay ate madu sub.
ject to the condition Hast must of tbeir promise*
will not be required to be performed, end yet with
this understanding on all hands, these promise* to
pay are taken a* payment in the ordinary busincs*
of buying and selling proirerty. This is lha source
of the immense profits of Banks. It is the art and
mystery uf making making, of creating that by
merely signing paper, which others less favored,can
only procure by a life of economy and toil. It is tho
privilege of procuring end eqjoylng, without labor,
the richest product of the labor of inhere. In the
face of thi* privilege, as exclusive at it is valuable,
the writer of this letter, fearing either that the buai*
ness of making money would Be abnndoned, unless
further protected, ur that the hanks would be starved
out uf existence for want of additional patronage,
gravely proposes, that are should levy a tariff for
their protection, equal lo the nubile purse nr the go*
vornment, and then receive tnalr promitee to pay
e* payment in replenishing the pursue* .'fieii ms ii
may be emptied for their benefit. The insolence of
tbe claim find* no parallel in the heaviest exactions
of theta, iff ul’1828; ami if tho onn.at I honestly be*
Uevc, justified nullification, what form of rutislance
is too decided for tho oi hurl
But it has been often urged in tbe defence of the
tariff monopoly, that without tbe protrci’oi of high
duties, our manufactures would ho prostrated, and
wo should be made dependent nn foreign countries
for tho necemries of life. The same cuckoo nob
is now raised by lha bank mono roly, and wo ate
told in this letter, that in addition to all tbe othei
special privileges which the bank* enjoy, tlu-y can*
nut live without the fostering aid of the fodernl re
venue. To all such appeals for spscial aid and pro
tection, the State Rights doctrine knows but ont re
sponse,—that if any branch of business is so unpro
ductive, it cannot live without b. !ng supported as a
parish pauper, it ought to be abandoned! and if not
vo! Jtiturily abandoned, the snonor it die* by starva
tion, the better. The public is then exempt of «
charge and a nuisance.
Out what answer lies experience given to inch
appeals from the filar, seassiidatesof manufactur
ing and bank monopoly? Thanks tn the gallant re
sistance >*f the Stale Rights party, the tariff is now
in a enursa of gradual rep i , Instead of manufac
tories being pro.tr*cl,they are now in a condition of
more permanent nnd solid prosp* rlty, . an when
thoy looked to the government for support* True,
tbeir inordiuate profits are somewhat curtailed, nnd
esrablithmeat* which were conducted withu-1 skill
and tnconomy, have given place to the tt". a solid
opt- etions of manufacturing lahoi, which now hid
defiance to cumpodtinu. From being psupoi ■ at the
publio eapensc, they have beonme esefui members
of the community of national labor.

TO HIS HONOU THE MAYOR.
Sir—I have a great opinion of your power* to
quiet domestic troubles—and I consider it la a
part of your duty to regulate tho household con
cern* of every man in the City—and also that
you should bare a neat pocket edithm of the laws
and ordinances of the City of Savannah, and the
Hamlet* thareof, alway* about you—and further,
that you should employ six darks to copy tha
ordinances on tha first and second readings
thareof, for tha eaa of tba inqul.itive—also that lha
City should bare a printing office of iu own. for the
exprosa purpose of printing all said laws and ordin
ances, for the um of the citisens giatlt. All this
you thou Id do, and much more too, yet would you
not hare done enough.
Do you not know. Sir, that by waiting until a law
is passed, before you order it to be printed, you
violate the CoutUlution of the United Stalet 1
And, Sir, do you w* know, that my wifo threw a
three legged stool at my head last week and broke it?
And where went you, Sir,all tho time? Answer me
that, Mr. Mayor. Had you been doing your duty,
you would have prevented this, by teaching my
good woman the law—and now I want you to come

dens onthoirshoulders, they hnvo always brcn found
willing and foremost in overy attempt to make nor
dear Savannah, what she should be—tlw. mart iff

But, Mr. Editor, I have a lingering thought for'

What \\xv\tfraternity could not successfully with

Again, Tarantula seems alarmed, ronfutindcd at
the moutiou of "nursery ballad*, God* and Goddes-

man’s timidity and sensitiveness. Tbe first (nur
sery ballads) doubtless bring op painful reminiscen

may have overtasked hit juvenile memory, and kit

not, mention a tingle authority in support nf his
abate of the Irith character! notone. Let us
look buck, for n moment, and toe how this contra-
vaisy commenc'd.
You, Mr. Editor, received a pamphlet from a
body styling itself tho " Native American Associa
tion of Louisiana," for tho purpose of extracting
therefrom—or passing an opinion upon Its contents.
In your legitimate office of reviewer, you gave your
views of the publication—fenrlfc*tly, and with the
impartiality that distinguishes your rolumnt. You
co sidort'd the body from wiienco that pamphlet
emanated an nnri republ'can one, and you said ao.
You believed it to be a political ruee de guerre, t
bo ujed for the benefit o r di*nppointed politicians
of the Fed oral Whig achnol—tho founder* of width
weie those who acted in union with Alexander
Hamilton, tho Monanhiei—wi h John Adams,
the author of Mien and Sedition La we. Wlm
could dispute your right to review that publication,
which was se.-t you for the purposo ? Who would
not Npplaud your doing su boldiy and. openly ! No
one. But, an anonymous s.-ribe, yclept" Watch,"
must find fault. Ho dues so, and is ropl'n d to hy
another anonymous writer, In the Oi orgian. What
has been tbv result. I am free to leave tu the public,
witli the few remarks 1 commenced with.
But it seems “ Watch" has drawn off from the
contest. Hu ha* retreated. It is said, thnt
" He who Kgbts and run# nwny,
May live to fight another day,
and I am quite willing h<« should have all thu bene
fit of the " u'd saw," a* woll os bis herald the "File,"
who scampered from the field before even a trum
pet was tuund- d.
However, I permit* by lost Friday’s evening pa-
por, that ''Two Watchmen” have made thoir debut
in the occupation which honest Dogikrry ami Jok
Seacoal dignified. But they luva stolon all their
thoughts hum " Watch," tlte eldvr. They a*k no
now questions—put forward no fresh argument—in
short, limy " make tbn wont of a bad job." They
only show tint they thought ** Watch" unahkt to
perform tire u*«»—and tirey hire exhibi cd tlieir
own lotil ignoranco iff the matter at i*suo.—
Watch” may turn op thorn and say—
" You giv* me most ogreginu* indignity,
and tbe " two watchmen" will any, in return,
” Ay, with all our heart* j and Unu art worthy ofit."
Towards the closo of tire " two watchmen’*" very
shallow «pUUo, they oak, hare 1 "ever seen any
writer for polit cal effaet assumo tba name of Ger
man?” I HAVE. Look et thn Pennsylvania pa
pers, before an election—and ail may see it assum
ed-aye, they ham many paper* even printed in
the German language. Hare I seen tho name of
" Frenchman" assumed ? I HAVE. Look at tho
" Courier det Elate Unit” printed in New York
—a warm supporter of tho present government,
and often containing choice political artick-a in rim
French language. In iu png'**, *b« name «ff
