PUBLIC MEETING.
At a respectable meeting of the citizens of Ham
ilton county, held in the Prubyterinn church in
Chnttnn ioga, on Sntuidny the 28th ult., on motion,
Win. Smith, Esrj. was called to the chnlr, and F.
A. Fnrhnnt, appointed Secretary. Tire object of
the meeting Iwing explained, on motion, tho Chair
appointed the following gentlemen a committee to
draft a preamble and reflations, viz. bln;. John
Cowart, ■ — ———, and F. A. Parham. The
committee retired to Kennedy’s Hotel, and after a
short delay, returned and reported ihe following
preamble and resolutions, which, after animated
discussion, were adopted:
Whereas, in the fulfilment of the grand enterprise
set on foot in Macon, Ua., a f»w years tinco, uf
opening up a thorough fare tn connect the Southern
Atlantic Ocean, with the nnvigabln waters of the
West, u Hail Road bus been located and is now
being boilt to intersect the river at this point. And
wheroHs, it is ardently desired and reasonably ex
pected by the citizens uf Georgia, that the toad
should be continued on intotho very heart of the
Mississippi Volley—reachirg with its trunk, tho
great futhurof waters,nnd traversing with itabram-H-
es, an ares of country, unsurpassed in soil, climuto,
mineral wealth, and extent of territory, by that of
any other Rond in thp United Stutos. Audit i#bp--
lleved that such a arhome, if put in operation, will
redound to the honor and highest interest of Ten
nessee and Iter sister States on the North mid West.
And whereas, it is expedient and highly important
that we should be fully aroused to tho magnitude
of the enterprise, anil while Georgia is magnani
mously running her rond, even within our t> rrituri-
nl borders, wo should, with n united voice and con
centrated onergy posh forward the mighty work, to
its final and trii.mplmnt completion—‘Therefore,
Rrtolved, Tlmt wo view with singular »ni|*fac-
lion, the rapid progress of tho W. «J-A. Rail Road,
end cunsmtohit* tho citizens of Georgia on the
favorable prospect ofeurly reaching the terminus of
tho grent enterprise,
Resolved, Thnt from what we liuvn scon and
ho'ird, it is our candid beliefihai this place presents
the most favorable ground on tho river for an inter
secting point, in view of its extension to the Missis
sippi—That immediately in the line from here to
Nashville, tho physical features of the countiy nro
unsurpassed for building a road,with one or two ex
ceptions ofn comparatively trivial nature.
Rrtolved, Tlmt a commit ten of five be appointed
redraft a charter for a Roll Rond from this plnre
to Nashville, and also u potition to obtain signatures
all over the general section or country, praying,
that honorable body to grant the ^Charter.
Reto/vd, That our immediate representatives
in the Legislature lie instructed to uso their influ
ence to have the chartur granted, and tlmt in view
of tho general good to tho Slate, wo implore the
favorable consideration of our memorial by thu
whole body.
Rrtolved, That we look upon tho courso of the
ChiefCivil Engineer of Georgia,Col. S.H. Lung, ns
being ch iracterisllc of n di-interosted, honorable
and scientific officer, and that wo look upon his
efforts in tin* furtherance of the great YVosiern
& A. Rail Road, to a proper terminus on the Ten
nessee river, and in behalf of u continuous line of
railway Into tho bosom the Mississippi valley, as
manifesting an enlarged philumliropy, and expand
ed viows of the best interests ofour common coun
try; as highly conducive to the vrulfnie of Giorgio,
ami every other modiutely in crested section of coun
try.
Resolved, That in view of the general good to
the whole State, and tha immediate advantage to
the counties named, that we invite the co-operation
of the citizens nf Marion, Coffee, Franklin, Bledsoe,
Wnrren, Rutherford, and Davidson; and tliut we
request thnt they will hold meetings, express their
viows, and petition tho Legislature fur u Charter.
Resolved, That tho editors in Chattanooga,—
Winchester, McMinnville, Murfreesborougb, Bnd
Nashville, and the Federal Union of Milledgevilla,
and other paper* elsewlioro, frlondly to the enter
prise, bo respectfully and earnestly requested to
publish the foregoing proceedings.
In obedleneco to the third resolution, the Chair
appointed B. R. Montgomery, Esq. R. Henderson,
Esrj., ■— .James A. Whiteside, Esq.
and F. A. l’arham, a committee to draft a petition
nnd a charter, for the road to Nashville. Where
upon, tho meeting adjourned tine die.

F. A. Parham, Sec’ry.
tumult areoffired In the meat friendly spirit* for w
taka credit to ourselves in sustaining out banks
whenever they hsvn been ••sailed, as part of that
system uf credit which is interwuven with the public
pro*|wriiy.
In the first place, then, we think that whatever
may bo th* hazards run by tins Batik of Charleston
sod the Bank of tha State of 8outh Carolina, by
increasing their circulation, there can be none to
which tha othar banking institutions ofour rhy are
subject, wbl :h can by possibility, plnre thalr Inte
rests in jeopardy, with one exception, which we
shall state hereafter, and which can be made a mat
ter of friendly arrangement. The only objection
which we have beard stated to the increase of their
discounts and circulation is that the two spado-pay*
in^banks will discot nt on the notes of Urn other
hanks placed with them on dcno.it, and that the bal
ances ngainst the non-spccia banks, if not paid in
specie, will carry the same rare of interest as they
receive on their circulation. Unoof these objection,
destroys, in a degree, the uthur. If the two specie-
paying hanks discount on the deposits made in tho
notes of tho other banks, the balanco ngainst the
latter will be in tlte same ratio diminished, and
there is no possibility that more than one third In
amount of tits notes issued by tho latter can, thro*
deposit es, constitute a bulnncu against them. They
Vill, if thoy hive to pay thu sumo rata oflntcrest on
those balances, as they receive, derive a latter
amount in interest than they pay, by thu sum which
is kept in circulation and not deposited in tho two
specie paying banks, and by tho amount deposited
with the latter, and which ts again returned to the
circulation in discounts. If the two specie-paying
banks should derive a profit from the oirouluiiun of
the non-specie banks, the non-specie paying banks
would derive a touch larger profit from their circu
lation, while the mercantile community would be
rol'evcd These objections nro, therefore, of no
force.
. .There is, however, another argument employed
by the non-specie paying banks which is uf weight.
It is urged tlmt thu capitals of the two specie-
paying banks being large, they possess tha power of
iiu'iu-sing the non-specie paying banks whenever re
sumption takes place, iftliese enlarge their circula
tion hnynnd its present limit*, and in proportion to
that enlargement. Tlte balances would probably be
called fur Tn specie, inwhicheasethe nrm-speclepay
ing banks will have been supplying the means of pro
fit, through theircirculation, tu the other institutions,
while they furnished them also tho moans of haras
sing thorn, whenever resumption takes place.
There ought to he some previous arrangement, be
cause here there would be justly (bunded causes of
apprehension. It aught to bo understood, through
friendly concert and interchange of views, that these
balances, whenever resumption take place, will not
bo culled for suddenly inspecie, but interest only're-
quired on them, at such a rate as will not be oner
ous on the present non-specie paying banks. It is
only by such concessions, in the spirit of harmony,
that banking institutions, can fulfil their obligations
to the public. We repeat that we utter these sug
gestions with the most friendly feeling to all our
bunking establishments: and wo are solely governed
byannnxioty to see amicable arrangements take
place of feelings of jealousy, that the community
may sustain and respect those establishments with
which their interests are so closely identified. Let
the Directors then of all our bunking institutions
come together, und by their common counsels and
mutual concession*, curn the lasting confidence of,
while they relieve, thu community.
The Bunks at Winchester, Va. have suspended.
Tim Huuerstown Bank hasulso suspended.
Cincinnati Banks —-The news of tho oastern
Bank suspensions notched Cinclnna'i nn the 14th
and produced no small sensation. On tho tame day
all tbe Banks in that city suspended, except the
Commercial. The predlcamentin which the Banks
in the State of Ohio are pluced by tnis event is thus
referred to itqtbe Cincinnuti Gazette of llm I5lh in
stunt: V
OHIO BANKS—RUIN EITHER WAY.
Tho suspension of specie payments, in thn Atlan
tic cities, must bu followed byugenmnl suspension.
Tho bnnks ihut continue to pay will bo druined of
their coin, in a veryshuu lime, by tlmt process.
And, in Ohio, suspension is attended wbh still innie
serious consequences. By tha banking law of last
session, February 16, 1839, pruvisiutt is made, that
If tiny batik of the state, suspend specie payments,
for a longer term thun thirty days, in any one yeot,
the president judge of the court of C. P Circuit, in
which the bunk is sitnutrd slinll issue a writ, for the
soonest ration of suuh bunk, and, through the sheriff,
deliver nil its effects, to one or more, of tho bank
commissioners. The commissioner is required re
proceed immediately to Collect thts debts due the
bank, and dispose of its property, and apply the
proceeds to the payment of its debts, for which pur
poses special cum missioners tnuy bn appointed by the
principal board.
We believe the p.ovisions of this law are peremp
tory. Tho bank commissioner must apply re the
judge who must order the sequestration. It is thus
that the Ohio banks are exposed to utter ruin either
way. If they continue repay specie till thuir lust
dollar is gone, then the sequestration must comu If
they surrender at onco, thocommissio er must pny
out th" specie to the first thut mukosjdumaud,so that
all thu sjHicie in our banks is exposed todistribu'iun,
in a very shoittime: and all their debtors are. liable
to forced payments, withuut delay. Nothing cun
snvo the banks and bank debtors but an ability to
continue specie payments, by tlte banks. From
this devastating ruin there seems to be no other es
cape. None but one is practicable, a special call nf
the Legislature, within the thirty days, to modify
this law. The wide spread destruction of business
nnd property, that the law must work, in Ohio, par
ticularly, is sufficient to vindicate this cull, notwith
standing the opinions emertulmd by the Governor
and the ruling powers, on thu subject of bank*.—
Imagination cannot conceive the waste than an Im
mediate bringing to a forced market,the millions of
property necessary to pay our bank debt must pro
duce in the Siute! I Nothing like itwus ever heard
of in the cu.'lecilun of debts.
by a process which wra.t be

Tbe step will bo fatal to thoae whoere weak enough
to expeet to profit by It, We have reed somewhere

FromthtN. Y. American j UUhimt,
The Review.—Tho review ofyesterduy was the
most remarkable nanidr.for tho number of troop*,
since the war.—'All the infantry forca of the city
was yesterday out—amounting, as far as we could
form an estimate, to be between 11 und 12,000
men.
The day was uncommonly fine, and of course the
throng of spectators was greatly Increased thnre-
by ,,
The line was formed on lh.» Sixth avonua, nnd rx-
tmded nearly three miles. At about 11 o,clock tbe
Governor left his quarters ut the City Hall, sur
rounded by u numerous and brilliant stuff, including
tho Adjutant General, the Cummlunry, Quarter
Mnstor and Paymnstot Generals uf thostatc, his
aida nnd the officers of the staffs of tho respective
Mqjor Generals of the line. Ho was oscorted by •
corps of cavalry, the Greys. On reaching the right
nf the line ho was received by tho senior ufficre,
Mqjor General Doughty, and as 1m redo leisurely
down tho line, was saluted in succrssion by each
corps .This over, he proceeded with hi • staff and es>
cort to Washington Square, where marques for their
reception had been pitched, and there awaited the
marching salute. After a sufficient Iniorvid, and
whon the head of the column was at hand, thu Gov
ernor remounted, and took his station at nbuul the
centre of this spacious park, w ith Ills staff formed
in the reur, nnd the Mayor of the city on his right
—and therefor two hours and mure, the time con
sumed In the passing of the troops, sat uncovered in
acknowledgment of the salutes paid to him.
At about half past 3 o'clock the-review termini-
ted, the regiments were marched tu their respective
parade grounds and then dismissed, Altogether It
wns a very animating display, and considering that
the great mass of those out, were unonifornt.-d mil
itia. the effect was very good. Some of the uni
formed companies attached to the regiments were
of very soldierly port nnd bearing—if we do n->t
discriminate, it is really from the difficulty, as thoy
rnssed, of sayingwhlch was most firm and roeular
u its march, or steady and accurate in the posltii
of its arms, &o.

FIFTEEN DAYS LATER FROM CANTON!
The ship Horatio, CupU Howland, arrived lout
night at nine o'clock from Cunt-m. At a late hour
of the night we boarifod brr, and through the cour
tesy of a gentleman passenger, we have received
verba) information respecting the state of affairs, and
a puperof the 11thJune, and through the attention
of (tie ciiptuin full ship news, which is subjoined.
The ship sailed on the 14fh June, and has there
fore had n hundred and tweniy five duys nassugn.
All the British merchants hud leftduring May. The
opium which had been seized was destroyed. The
Horatio left no other American ship. She spnke
bark Francis of Boston off tho Cape of Good Hope
in August; and the Exchange from Batavia bound
to Cowes. Trade was entirely suspended al Cat>
ton, and all things remained quiet after the sailing
of the Panama. There was very little prospect of
trade until tho imperial coirj : ..i*sioner should have
left; and an indisposition appeared to exist on the
part of the Hong merchants to tvnuw nr advance
trade. Great ex.-rjemont existed on the part of the
Chinese on account of tho suspension of commer
cial intercourse. The opinion of the gontlearan
from whom we derived tho above information, and
who hus boon a resident in Canton for five or six
years, is. thnt there is not on American or Euro
pean there ut this lime. It was nevertheless sup
posed that the trade in opium would be continued,
in spite of tho efforts of the government.
In the paper submitted to us (the Register,) the
only articlu we find worthy of notice is the follow
ing. the most of it being occupied by European
news:—
“ From the following edict our readers will learn
thut C .|.i. Elliott has applied to H. E., theimper
iul commissioner, for pci mission to tiie British mor-
chunts to conduct their business at M -con. It is
singular tlmt thisedict, which relates only to Bc3i
tisli affuirs nnd British interests, should have been
fuiwurd'-d by tho Hong merchants only to the
American'merchants in Canton. Not u British
merchant nor a British subject ha* received a copy.
.Tills cavalier treatment of the British by the Hong
merchants requires explanation und satis.action. ’

THE CHARLESTON BANKS.
Tha increasing pecuniary embarrassments of the
city induce us tn address a faw suggn»ti»ns t*> tlwraa
who administer tbe concerns ofour Banking Institu
tions. It all irnpoi tsnt that the banks should move
in harmony, for It i« only by co-operation that the
community ran Im relieved from too present money
pressor*. A friendly spirit betwren them end the
UaaUlunentof jaatoue feeling la what thus* institu
tion owe to tho public. 8ucu luggsitioni •» wr may
From the N. Y. Eve. Post, 16th in*/.
If ono of the drummers of a brokon merchant,
who had faifod for twenty shillings in the pound,
should go about tho town plotting to make other
merchants in good credit foil ulso, end scattering
mysterious hints to 'tb ir prejudice,. we suppose
that ere long the parsons honored with his visits
would begin to show him the door,
One or two drummi-isofthu United State* Bank
are hard at work trying to drag down the bonks of
this city to the sama depth to which thoir patron
has gravitated. Tbe Evening Star, in grateful re-
col lection, doubtless, of that shameful transaction,
tho gratuity of fifty-two thousand dollar*, keeps in
sisting, from day to day, thnt our bnnks shall follow
the Philadelphia example, and stop payment. It
is well recollected that in tho spring of 1837, the
failure of the banks was in a good measure owinj
to the cry on the part of the whig nrese am
other*, that the bunks must, and would suspend
payment. The Star is now repeating the method
witich then succeeded so well. Tbe design seams
to be, by perpetually talking about the necessity of
a suspurudon to bring about a ran upon tbe bauks
and compel thorn to stop payment.
The pretext is the benefit of the merchant-; the
merchants, it is said, will, in case of a suspension of
specie p-iyments, be enabled to borrow of the banks
a* largely us thuy could wish. In other words, the
blinks should cheat tho holders of their notes for
the sake of accommodating their customers; they
should co nmit a breach of fafci* which shall tax
every poor laborer and hardworking woman, tu tho
amount of a twentieth or tenth of tho money in
their hands, for the sake of being able to lend
more liberally to those who deal directly with the
hanks. But they who rely on this will be disap
pointed. If the banks stop payment, they must
immediately put their transactions in such a train
as will enable them ultimately to return to the pay
ment of their notes. To do this they muxiconlract
their accomm'*dutiun*; there is no alternative. If
they take ihn uthur course, thnUifu profuse extension
of banking facilities, tiny only will accumulate upon
themselves an immewra load of liabilities; they will
only transform their capital into piles of worthless
note-; th-?y will only plungo into tbe same ruin
which has ingulfed the banks of the /oulljweslern
states and tbeir customers together..
This is upon tho supposition that such a course
would not bn arrested by law. But the law would
interfere; the people would interfere; t he people
would not : ok quietly on und tea the whule system
of buying and selling, of debt and credit, ell values
and ciimut'-s of property thrown Into uuer con fu
sion. The affairs of the banks would go into the
hand* of receivers, and thoir chartet* would bo for*
felted.
That may be, answer the honest gentlemen who
ask tha banks to client tbdr creditors, the bill
holders; that may be, but the bank* could then fall
back upon the nnw banking law and reorganize un
der it.
But what resource would the new banking
law offer to the stockholders whose entire capital s
taken out of ib<*ir band*; whose connexion with
their former customers is abruptly dissolved; whose
whole stock of notes and old ohligrtfoiis is in other
bind* to collect, and whose affsiia arc wiwlin| up

RISK IN THE RIVER,
fllnco our Inst,-we have lieen fitvured with • light
fall or ruin, which hns caused the river to rise soma
two or threofeet, nnd dreadful to relate, ft hiisswept
away tho oar rail fence, and completely overflown
thu plantation of the "founder and proprietor of
Hamburg," noticed in’our nnprr nfew weeks since,
as having been surveyed, ploughed and planted, on
the bottom of the Savannah river. His turnips and
late corn had just began to make their appearance
above ground, and the loss ofhiscrop will no doilbt
he severely felt, as wore it not for this sad mishap,
they would have brought a good price in this mar*
k-t, not only for their flavor, but as • enriosity. The
worst is still to come, wefoar the worthy "founder"
will not live long enough again to behold his planta
tion, unless wo have shortly another such dry year
ut 1839 has been so for. Yesterday tbe river was
foiling fust.—Constitutionalist 24/A /hi/.
