With rational |>ri lu an I eiultation in the energy and enterprise of our indus trious population, have we witnessed the rich result of their labors pouring into our city, drawn by the slow progression of animals or impelled by the light ning celerity of steam. “ Savannah River.” By the article ap|>ended below from the Georgian of Nov. 16th, we are glad to see that efforts are mak ing to remove the old wrecks sunk during the revo lution, and other obstrutions in the ship channel of the S tvannah river. The removal of these wrecks, and the i nproveuient of tile river otherwise is a mat ter of the first importance to the people of Gei rgia. And in connexion with the great chain of ilail Road completed and in progress, extending from Savannah to the Tennessee and Mississippi \ alley, and tile vast and fertile regions of country that will fin 1 upon the completion of these works an outlet tor their pro ductions, an I an entrance for their foreign supplies there, the removal of these wrecks therefore becomes a matter of great concern, not only to the people of this but to those of the adjoining States. Let the River be improved below the city so that vessels of the largest elass will have no diffi tilly in getting to the w'l trfs oftlic city. This a Ided to the a Wantages of a salubrious climate. and speedy communication w':;h 1 to interior, would give anew impulsion to the firtunes of the city of Oglethorpe. We commend the subject to the consideration of a>ur Representa tives in the Legislature, anj members to Congress, an! trust that a sufficient appropriation will lie made by Congress at its next session to crown the undor t.i.kin ' with su'Cess. The southern tales, Georgia, particularly, has never vet had much aid from the General Government in the improveucTit of Iter har bors—and whilst thousands liave fteen annually ex pen led upon tile i nprove.tient of harbors in the Northern and nid lie -Slates, of little i nport-inee ci ther in a com nerciil or n uion.nl point of view, one of the most i nportant harbors upon our South Atlan tic sea board has been almost wholly neglected. The Savannah River. “As tho condition of our River is one which af fc-ts all classes in llte community, inasmuch as its capacity to admit large vessels to our wharfs throws upon our shores the products of foreign climes with l|C 1 east cxpfii.se ol' importation, and thus mvigor ates t ie life-current of Commerce, we deem it proper to advise the co it nuoitv getter dly, t lat tho Ctinmis sioners of Pilotage, nave not been 111 active in watch ing the interests of the ur a* tlieir limited fii„ Is allowed.

SpPcn’atinn upon Speeu'ation. We have recently in conversation with some of our business men, elicited so.ue facts which are of so great importance to our city, tltat we think it wortii win e to name some ol them, that those interested might inquire into their truth and govern themselves accordingly. It is said that the reason why so little Cotton has been sent here lor sale from Augusta this year, is, that it has so far been monopoliz 'd by tSjM'culatnrs there. Tu.it persous have obtained large loans from the Hanks there, by drafts upon men of straw here and at the North, and have been speculating without limit upon a prospect of a short crop. That having gone almost as tar as they can there, they have sent agents to Macon, who draw on them, and invest the proceeds of their bids in Cotton, at the highest prices. It is ftu ther said, that one of the largest of these operators takes the immne and lire risk himself, on ail his purchases; so that one cau*eosiiy see that if a I lank grants loans, against Cotton, under these cir cuinstances, us directors take great libei ties with tiie property of the stockho ders. When a 13 ink lends money to an indivi dual upon his own re spun ini.ity only, tiie le.ist its directors eou.d and >, we should imagine, would he, to see Hint the colla teral projierty was covered by insurance. If the fuels are us communicated to us, we regret exceedingly to -ee the evil ti nes coming upo i us again, of wild 'P ‘dilation, kite-dying and inflation. — Tn * avi's of 18-37 and 1 E3l, with the excesses of local banning and trregmori ties of local currency and lin uiciering, are barely cured when anew outbreak threatens to sweep us all down again.— It only shows that there is no self regu lalinif principle’, and that there needs some sfrefti some check, such as a National Bank to control the evils of speculation and restrain excessive local , hank issues. Opt ;t v of onr friends arive us more information on this subject, piovidcd what vve have now named are facts. It is worth looking into belorc it is too late. Gov.

Wil lard, intended to knit together the land of the loom with that of the plough in commercial enterprize. She is a staunch well built and beautiful vessel, with an American prow, which, when afloat on the broad bosom of the Atlantic, will speak to her competitors, catch me if you cm—beat me, you can't. She is commanded by a seaman who knows his business, aud while her capa city is ample enough to accommodate hods of friends, her light draught in sures a speedy transit from wharf lo wharf. In ballast she draws only eight feet, and when cotton loaded will draw only ten to eleven feet.—She has comfortable acconmiod tlinns for twelve passengers, j and a very pieitsant and capacious cabin. The Huma was but it by Amos Gran -1 dall, Bristol, 11. 1., for Capt. Joseph L. G ird er, of Bristol. Her tonnage is ! 3SD 33-V45 tons. Her length is 113 feet 3 inch s. Iler I team 27 feet. The Ilumu h is floated into our waters ! from the shores of llhod : Island in five | days, indicating that if necessar y she will soar above clouds and storm, to re pose with lightning speed on the peace tul wave of t ie Savannah. If she is encouraged, a second and a third will spring, with sails set, to her side, to contend for the smiles of those, who are always proud to recognize and foster .American enterprise.

VAN BUiIFN.” Short—for Air. Vax 13uue.v, almost a phenomenon of brevity. But the distin guished author was even then preparing ; his revenge, in the Indiana ex|>ositioii which was so wide and so clear that it was an actual fog hank of light. For our part we have never for a moment doubt, ed that Mr. Van Boren was in principle opposed to a protective Tariti—we have 1 said so often. But it is a principle that with him is not radical—that he hugs not to his heart—that did not prevent | his friend Mr. Wimght from voting lor t.se tarili’of IS 12, while he too condemn ed it—that did not prevent Mr. Van Bo ren from allowing a protective tariff to creep in, in his India.:a Letter, under the head of exceptions—that did not pre vent hi> friends at Syracuse from promul gating ‘incidental protection” as their, doctrine on licit subject. It the question were given over to Mr. Van Boren, free of till antagonist influences, to settle tor the country, we really should have no fear of the result. But as the head of a) party, calculated to ways and means of getting into office, we feel by no means , the same degree of confidence—we can not say we have any exact opinion of what he would do—we think his “ex ce.itioius" uoild expand tearfully till they might cover the wiioie surface, leav ing it for in positive geologists to dig for the principle beneath. Tiie Athens (Go.) Bainer some time since propounded to us certain questions about our future course, and complains that we have made no answer. We have a lietter excuse than incivility, lor ne glecting many .things within the la t iortuight, that fall within our province. And now we can hard y answer them definitely, for we have them not, and re tain but a din recollertiuu of their tenor. But the Banner takes a paragraph of the Hamburg Journal, declaring that it goes ,for Calhoun first, and if we can’t get him, then for Clay, as some mrt of satis faction to its doubts. We must interfere with its repose on this matter —for we entirely disagree with the Hamburg Jour nal. We are not only not lor Clay, as our second choice, but we are not for him tit all. We not only prefer A lr. Cal houn, but .Mr. Van Buren, ka.. Buchan an, .Mr. Ctiss, Mr. Tyler, aye and Air. Webster—if the Banner is curious as ft) our Whig preferences. And this we say, because Mr. Webster is neither a bigot on the subject of Bank or Tariff, and has a vastly deeper respect for the interests of Commerce than his backwoods compeer, who lives so near the borders of civiliza tion that he admits himself he has not the means of forming a rational opinion on the merits of the present tariff law. We. have no opinion of electing such igno ramuses to high and responsible oflice. Let them qualify themselves first, by reading the newspapers. But then, according to our dim re membrance; the Banner dedres to know what we mean to do as to the National Democratic Convention ? As the ques tion was based upon the assumption that “the time for argument is past,” and ns we entirely differ with our cotemporary there, it is sufficient to say that we mean to support what we think right, and op pose what we think wrong—and as to men, it is our opinion that the less we swear by them, the less occasion shall we have to swear at them. We mean to sup port our principles, and when vve find out what principles the Democratic par ty are ging to support, we shall know better what sort of fellowship there is to be between us. —Charleston Mer. A Veteran Pri<oner. There lately died at CoblentZ, in the prison called the Convent of the Carmel ites, a man known by the name of “the I old Frenchman with the white beard,” confined there thirty-two years, of which twenty-eight were voluntary. In 1811. a soldierof the 2(Hh Regiment of French Dragoons was discovered asleep, with his head on his knapsack, in the forest I of Coblentz, an I taken up as a deserter. He declared his name to bo Antonio Aii vors, a native of Aosta, in Bied no at, and that he had received his discharge, with it pension of 200f. a year, from being sub ject to frequent fits of mental alienation. The authorities left him temporarily in prison. There he remained until the al lied troops enteied Cohlentz, in 1814, when an order was given lo send him : and others to a depot of French prison ers. This he strongly protested against, declaring that he was not it French pris oner, but an Italian discharged from the service. In the course of the next year, ■ his father aud uncle arrived, obtained his j liberation, and took him with them on their way home. At a little distance j from Cohlentz, he suddenly quitted them, and return and to the prison, requesting | permission to be allowed to resume his j former quarters. This was allowed, with 1 full liberty granted him to go out when he pleased. Notwithstanding this |>er niission, he. never left his cell for twenty eight years, and during that period never asked for light or fire, no matter how se vere might be the cold. He spent his time in making hair rings, ivory thim bles, box pa|ter cutters, arid other little objects, which he so and to strangers who c.*me 4o see him. He was seventy one years old u! fit's death ; and having never cut his board, which was very long, and of exceeding whiteness, and being ol lofty stature, he hud a most venerable ap pearance 1 lie died worth 1,100 thalers, (about 4,000f.) which he had saved dur ing Itis imprisonment.
