«on for Union men to give them their
votes over those of their own party, equal
ly honest and zealous, and more to be re
lied upon, in opposing the influence of
monopolies and Banks, over the principles
and rights of the people ?
The • rent struggle is, we believe, but
iu»t begun; and the Whigs,Nulliliersand
Bankites, wedded to money and monopo
ly will leave no stone unturned—no ar
tifice, no deception, however gross, but
will be attempted, to delude the people
and rivet the chains of a privileged aris
tocracy ou this country. However con
fident we may be of the sincerity of those
candidates on the Nullification ticket who
declare themselves Sub-Treasury m-n,
we are equally certain of their opposition
to every measure, and every important
political opinion, advocated by the De
mocracy of the country. Shall we trust
them to represent, or rather to misrepre
sent, the feelings and opinions of the
State, on all other subjects, because they
agree with us in this?
Will not the candidates of our oppo
nents, should they be elected, disregard
the will of the people on this, as well as
every other subject of vital importance to
the influence of the principles of Democ
racy ? Can any one doubt that a majori
ty of all parties in Georgia are decidedly
in favor of the Sub-Treasury project ?
Yet, has not Mr.Dawson united with Clay,
Webster, and Adams, and the whole Fe
deral party, in defeating the passage ol
the bill? Can wc expect more, of those
of the same party, who now approve this
measure, than that they will advocate it
onlv while they conceive the influence ofc
their political power is not to be prejudic
ed, or they themselves defeated, from
their support of it ?
What has converted this 1)111 into a mat
ter so objectionable with the Nullifiers ?
Did they not,in solid phalanx,propose and
vote for the same measure in 1835?
Is it not as reasonable that they should, it
elected, find it as important now to op
pose it, ns did Mr. Dawson, in the late
session of Congress ? It is a measure of
the Administration, supported by the De
mocracy of the South, and every other
portion of the Union. Will the Nulli
fiers, although friendly to it, give it
their hearty and firm support, while their
party oppose it, and their object is to dis
grace and remove the present Adminis
tration ? No ! Why have they changed
their opinions since 1535? “Do princi
ples change with the moon?” No; but
men do, with the feelings and current ol
sentiment expressed by those they are
elicited most immediately to serve in po
litics. Let every Union man in Georgia
discharge the solemn obligations of duty
and patriotism he is called-on to perform,
put on his armor, and nerve himself for
the conflict which is approaching—go to
the polls, and vote for the ticket, the
whole ticket, which is presented him from
his own political ranks, and the contest is
uneasy one; and this measure, and all
others which affect the rights and interest
of the South, will he sustained by the
men who will be elected to represent us
in Congress.
Is not what is confidently asserted in
in relation to the indebtedness of mem
bers of Congress to the Banks worthy of
the serious attention of every nnti-Bank
man in Georgia? May not the defeat of
the Sub-Treasury Bill be attributed to
this state of things? It is stated that
“ the present members of Congress are,
directly ami indirectly, indebted to Banks
at least a million and a half of dol
lars.” Besides this influence against
the Sub-Treasury measure, and every
other policy of the Administration which
cither does or docs not relate to the cur
rency, the influence of the Banks is al
most incalculable, as affects the interested
feelings ol individuals, in opposing the
influence of the Administration.
There ate, within the country', “nine
hundred Banks, containing three hundred
millions stocks, with nine hundred Presi
dents, nine hundred Cashiers, and nine
Lundrcd Bank Lawyers, five thousand
Directors (all influential characters,) fifty
thousand dealers on Bank credit, a great
portion of the members of Congress and
ot the State Legislatures, who hold stock
in Banks, fifty thousand insolvents, (who
want Government to pay their debts,) one
hundred thousand office seekers, from the
Presidential chair down to the lowest
clerkship, with a multitude who have
itching propensities for new things. All
these form a mighty_host; flanked on one
wing with anti-masons, and on the other
with Abolitionists; with a rear-guard of
Conservatives, and many scouting parties
besid<\ Is it possible for the Democracy
of theXmited States to withstand this for
midable army, who have already bid de
fiance, and set the battle in array ?”
He is an enemy to the prosperity of the
party, or guilty of a criminal indifference
to Us welfare, who, at this dangerous cri-
*i«, shall refuse his support in electing
t lose whose certain and zealous efforts will
e used in advancing the measures by
winch its harmony can be preserved, its
strength maintained, and its ascendency
perpetuated, and the Government be pro
tected against the evils of a mammoth

In fixing upon a day for llie resumption of ter * Joiner. Kelly of Houston. K<-llv of
Specie payments, the Banks of Savannah have
resumed.” their accustomed nri tocrutic bear
ing toward-i the country Banks, by the adop
tion of the following (imposition :
“The Binks of Savannah will receive (lie
bills of all the couniry, or interior Banks in
go id credit, on deposite or in payment of d b -,
but not re-issue them; provided sue!i Banks (ex
cept those of Augusta,) agree to redeem the.r
balances in the city every fortnight, with the
city, or northern funds at par, or specie; and
that such agreement shall be consummated by
such Banks with the Banks of the city on or
before the first day of September nexi.”
In view of the real merits ot the issue involv
ed in these degrading propositions, I would sim
ply ask the “Country or Interior Bank*,” what
'hey hnveJ^gain by thus purchasing themselves
a credit i^^he city of Savunn h?—How ran
the “consummation” of suett tin agreement ben-
' fi' them a cent?—Nav, will it not operate as a
positive and palpable injury? Does that region
of country present suclt n field tor circulation.
''8 to tempt the interior Banks into an agree
ment, characterized by any tiling but liberality
and equality? And suppose in this regard the
prnspi ct was inviting, do they not certify tli8
banks of the interior that they shall have no
participation in ii? Do tltev not express!' de
clare, that theyjwili ‘ r *ce : T ■—bu' not re-issue
them.” So that, for the interior B nksto have
their notes bankable at Savannah, is but to
“agree” with the well disciplined Bink police
•f that city to apprehend nnd lock up their ab
sconded notes until they can send down an agent,
pay expenses, nnd bring them home! What
‘ interior Bank” will “coniu imute” an “ag-ee
menl” that wtl 1 subject it to inconvenience nnd
injury so b \ref«ced? But suppose the up coun
try Banks should all determine silently to reject
the proposals of the Savannah Banks—ought
the mattei to stop there? I should say not. For
although the Sa.nnnnh Banks refuse to allow
an up country note to circulate within their
boiders, they are n ady enough to avail them
selves of the advantage of nil up-country cir-
culation ; and accordingly send up annually
large amounts of their notes fir that purpose,
and by which floods of them are emptied at the
very doors of the up-country Banks. Now, if
the Savannah Banks refuse to let an up country
hill circulate in their cilv, should not the un-
country Banks claim the same privilege by
adopting some method that will c-xpel all foreign
circulation from their respective towns? This
may be done in two wavs.—Let the interior
Banks receire. the Savannah notes, but on no
occasion pay them out, or “re-issue’’ them; nnd
at convenient periods, let all the Banks in I he
respective towns unite nnd send down their bnl
nnci-s to the mistress city for settlement. This
course vigorously pursued, would soon force
(not buy) them a credit even in Savannah!—
Or, let the Banks in the interior covenant not to
receive cither in payments or on deposits, nnv
notes of the Savannah Banks. This would
drive them from the up-country, and compel
their retreat to their own native swamps.

And the same being rend,
Mr. Crane offered the following as a substi

Please inform Mr. J. H. Harrison, who has
published in the Greenville Mountaineer, Ins
production of eighty three stalks of wheat fmm
one grain, that I lately raised of the wheat
called “ big while,” eighty six s'alks from a
single grain in my garden, where the soil was
originally poor and sandy, with a clny bottom,
not sufficiently manured for ordinary gardening
purposes. The number of grains from the
above seed, when counted, was 3.414. The
result is furnished to you, only as a hint to those
who are engaged in the cultivation of the soil.

THE ELECTION. *
The returns come in very slowly ; we have
not yet heard the official account Irom Wash-
ington. Tottimin’s majority, there, however, is
stall'd to be about 70—thus swelling his whole
vote to 240 majority. This result is truly as
tonisbing alike to Whig and Democrat, and had
it been predicted two weeks ago. it would have
been considered madness. To what can we
attribute this gratifying indication, uniass to re
newed confidence in the policy of the Adminis
tration—unless to n preference of the simple
Sub Treasury scheme to a Mammoth Bank?
The subject was fairly presented to the people,
and the Whigs were anxious to nb dc by its ro-
>u!t on these considerations. Th** test lias been
nn»t gloriously triumphant, and a “ball is set
in motion,” which will no> cease rolling until
other States be “redeemed, regenerated, and
disenthralled” from the dominion of Wbiggerv.
God speed it! sav we, fur out of the ranks of
the Administration ihereis n<• hope for the South
—no assurance that she will rise superior to her
present state of vussa lage.
Since our last, we have received the follow,
ing from oilier counties of the State.
Autauga county.
The following candidates are elected—all
staunch supporters of the Sub-Treasury:
Dixon Hall, 7u9 Sub-Treasury,
J. W. Withers, 047 do.
Thomas Hogg, 616 do.
And N. W. Thompson is re elected Countv
Clerk.
Macon county.
Clanton, a firm supporter of the Sub-Treasu-
ry bill, is elected.
Coosa county.
W. W. Morris, a constitutional Currency
advocate, is elected without opposition.
Lowndes county.
The news from this is not complete. It is
•put beyond a doubt however, that L. Cottrell,
Senator, and John Tarver and John Cook, ate
elected, all Administration nr-n, and opposed to
mammoth banks and the reign o! shin plasters.
Monroe county.
The no«-s from this is not so favorable. It
is feared the Whigs have elected both their
Candidates. None of the candidates were m
favor of the sub.Treasury measure—two were
Bankites, and the other was an anti-Adm nis
tration ntan.
Dallas county.
Out of nine candidates in this county, James
M. Calhoun, WilliamS. Phillips, W. C. Clifton,
nnd Uriah Girebv nrc elected—The first re
ce ved 796 votes; the second, 860; the third,
810 ; and the fourth, 727 We arc not aware
of the politics of the candidates. Calhoun ts a
sub-Treasury advocate.
The wmk, thu- far, goes on, and Alabama
will vet an example that shall do her honor.—
She is pre-eminently the supporter of the De.
inocracy. and the false cry of “ruin,” “pu se
nnd sword,” has had no influence on her, save
tq make her prize more highly the excellent
policy of the prevailing Administration.

The following is an extract from a letter, to
the Editor, giving further particulars of the late
Indian murders in Georgia, an accout of which
api>eared in our paper of Thursday last.
“Fort Gilliland, (E. F ) July 31st. 1838.

“Forty five miles north west of Centerville, on
Sunday morning, a man came full speed into
camp with the cry of Indians. I asked where.
He said about five miles off, that he bad just
removed a family who heard the report of guns
and screams of people. We were in our sad
dies in s few moments, and under full speed to
thespot where the alarm originated; and O. God!
of all the scenes I ever saw. or wish to see. pre
sented itself to view. On reaching the ground,
a man, wife, and lour of his own. and two of his
sisters children had fallen bvthelndinns. Three
of ihe six, were alive wh°n we reached the
spot, one about three rears old had been shot
through the abdomen, nnd lav asleep on the
dead mother, another about toil rods from the
mother. B it, O. horrid to tell. I found a fine
vnun ,T ladv of 18, shot in two places and dirked
i > another, with about tw ntv hogs around her.
and she vet alive and bad Iter senses perfectly
This was the most trying time I had ever seen.
I gave her cold water, which she wished much,
nnd remained ns long ns ] could, till obliged
to go in search of the Indians. We left a guard
to protect them, nnd administered to themal! that
thev could, but all expi ed in Ipss than twen
ty minu'es after we left. The Indians scatter,

we could find the trail; wc followed them about
twentv five miles, and until further pursuit could
not be had, hnvingthen gone into the Okafunnka,
as far ns white man could well eo Wo left
our horses and waded tiearlvfoour hips in mud

that a White Man was with the Indians, and

We would give a respectable consideration to
be able to live in a commuity when we should
hear no more of Mr. Biddle, the great regulator
of the currency’. W e are sick, as Charles
Lamb would sny, of perpetual Biddle. But
what can we do? He thrusts himself, or is
thrust by some of his presides, in our way, at eve
ry turn. Tiresome and hackneyed as the sub
jecl is, even to nausea, we are compelled to no-
lice it:
“He who marries a widow,” say9 the Spanish
proverb, “will often have a dead man’s head
thrown into his dish”—a horrible adage, wheth
er true or not. Bui this we know, lrorn daily
experience, that whoever conducts a Democratic
journal will often have the ’‘great regulator,
head, body, and limbs together, thrown into h s
dish. The least It* can do is to throw out again.
We like not our viands flavored with such con
diments. According to Dr. Clarke, (lie Rus
sians do not object to take their soup peppered
with individuals of the insect creation; but such
is not our taste.
The commercial of last evening tosses Mr.
Biddle at us in the following manner.
“Mr. Biddle has exhibited the strongest de
sire to contribute all in his power, and in the
most effective manner, to the advantage of the
great financial interests of the country, irrespect
ive of political feelings, and regardless of the
fierce and bitter ana ks that have been mado up-
on him—hut in regard to which he has never
permitted himself to bo annoyed The time
will soon come when his services, nnd the con
summate skill and ability with which he has ad
ministered the affairs both of the old and new
bank, will be admitted and appreciated by the
v’telligencc of the whole country. And when
the smoko of the battle has cleared awa v, many
vorv many people will look ba<-k in amaz -ment
at their conduct in regard to NICHOLAS BID
DLE—a name which is destined to stand out in
bold relief.hen'after, as one of the ablest finan
ciers of the age.”
What has happened to cull forth this volte-
ment eulogium? Simply that Mi. Biddie has
j ist performed the op’-iatioii of buying out at a
good bargain, a couple of bonds not yet due,
which the Government ofthe United States held
against him. We shall lut two Whig papers
tell the story.

It is amusing to hear men prating about their

When a man sells himself, the first thi g he

REMARKABLE RUINS AND TRADI
TION.
On the eastern shore of Pascagoula Bay, in
Jackson county, State of Mississippi, near its
mouth, are the ruins of an ancient fortification,
built apparently, many centuries ago. It ap
pears to have been constructed chiefly of sea-
shells. Within this ruin, several fret below the
surface, have been found charred coals, and
fragments of a peculiar kind of earthen ware,
together with man’v human bones. Amonsrst
them wore discovered parts of a human skeleton
of gigantic proportions. The tipper part ol the
skull was said to bo sufficiently large to fit loose
ly over the largest modern heads.
“All historical traces of the origin of this for
tress have long since disappeared. There is,
however, a tradition still amongst the old French
settlers on the Bay, said to have been derived
from the Indians who inhabited the coast on it*
first settlement by the French, that this fortifica
tion was built by n tribe of Indians long since
extinct, known as the Biloxies.
“According to the legend, this tribe was at
war with a more powerful neighboring tribe.—
After many successive defeats, they were driven
to the sea shore, where thev built this fortifica
tion; they were closely and vigorously besieged
for a considerable time, till their supplies be
came exhausted, and they were reduced to the
last extremity. Hope having deserted them,
they marched into the ocean and perished!
“In this neighborhood is frequently heard the
most extraordinary and strange music. It is
h’-ard in the summer months, only, and on the
most calm and serene evenings, usually nftcr
sunset.- It is snid to be truly melodious, resemb.
ling severnl instruments in concert: the mo^t

cadences though no peculiar notes or instruments
are imitated The sound appears to have no pe.

tnry—sometimes appearing to be in the water,—
then immediately changing its position, seems to

this mvsterinus nocturnal music continues, is va
rious nnd irregular; sometimes hut momentary,
—again it will continue for hours,—and. linger,

in fnnev: end the delusion will last till we are a',
most led to believe that it exists onlv in imagin.

Wednesday Morning. Aug. 1,1838.
To the Editor of the Floridian:
Sir—The early part of Inst evening Mr. Sin.
gletennry, his wife and two children were
shockingly murdered in this neighborhood.—
Rut one of the family, a girl of about 5 years
of age. miraculously escaped, to tell the melon
cliolv I dings of her parents nnd sisters. She
savs the deed was perpe’raied bv Indians, ac
companied bv one or two colored persons. Ma
jor Dea'born, with volunteers from the neigh
borhood, is in the search for the murderers, but
as they had a who!" night in advance to e»
cape, it i< no' probable that their trail ran be
followed, o.- the party overtaken.—Comments

The contest waging in Florida with the Se
mmoles has assumed so erratic and guerilla a

No one c»n anticipate whose house or whose

We learn that the fifth' instalment of the Nea
poliian indemnity has been paid to the agent of
iiie Uni <*d States in Paris, and is now in the
course oft • ansmission to this country in gold.
As soon as it is received, and the net! pro
coeds of it ascertained, notice will be given bv the
Treasury Department to the claimants, of the
amount and places of payment.
We cannot let this occasion pass, without ex
pressing our admiration of the punctuality and
good faith which have uniformly characterized
the Neapolitan Government in fulfilling its
treaty of ind -mnii v, and the great success which

in procuring this and other indemnities for our

in respect t<»the Iasi circumstance seems likely to
distinguish the present Administration: as two
in 10 counties, since last vear, 2,181 votes. In
12 counties for the State Legislature, tlie mem
bers elected of each party are 15 in number.—
Mr. Strange(V. B.) elected rothe U. S. Seu-te
by a majority of 4 votes, making a gain of onc

To ocr Readers.—Once more we must

in their pretensions to purify, and the loudest in j if* his wife, shortly to be confined,^ should have
tltcir denunciations against the olleged corrup.
tionsof a Republican administration. Why the
very man whom they engaged to make out tho
case against the Government, was, and is, a feed
counsel of the Bank, a bondman to tl.nt institu
tion in character as well as in name. It was
not until the notorious John Bell has experi
enced the benefaction of the Bank, in theshape
of an accommodation of $53,000, that hebetznn
to sound bis hoarse note ot “corruption,” and t>>
declaim against the abuses of the Government,
wnieh he had supported in tho very measures
against which he now vociferates, with a fervor
which pravns the truth of the old adage that “one
renegade is worse than ten Turks ” Who so
vehement in his denunciations, so hypocritical
in its pretensions, ns the corrupt ex Secretary of
the Navy, Southard, who enjoys a sinecure
of $6,000 a year, hy holding the nominal presi
dency of that precious cocern and satellite of
Mr. Biddle, the Morris Canal and Banking
Company? This man gets the salary of a cabt
net minister fer lending his r.nme only to tbit
wicked concern, and yet, with unbtasliiug front
and brazen tongue, is ever defaming, in public
and in private, the character and conduct of the
Democratic party. There was a time .when
one so corrupt and impudent ns he could not
hold up his head in the society of honest men;
and now he must set himself up as the very tyD*
of perfection, the railing censor of those who
would indeed blush to be confounded with him.

Lightning.—More buildings.&c. were struck
with lightning, in this city, during the exten
sive showers of Frida v, July 2 tth, than in any
previous shower within our remembrance. Wc
have already mention* d the following casual
ties which occurred, aud they are doubtless but
a small part of the whole number. Of course,
great numbers of tre*-s were struck, of which
no mention is made in the papers :
Rams s ruck and burnt, ,
Houses struck,
Do. nnd burnt, .
Stack of hnv burnt,
Loco Foco Hickorv pole struck,
School house struck,
Lndv deprived of her shoes, .

Horse killed.
Bed and bedstead torn to pieces,
Boo's tinsolcd, . . .
Boot-leg torn open, .

Panes of glass broken by bail .
It is remarkable that every barn reported ns
struck, was burnt,- while only one house was
burnt out of tea struck. This fact may be ac
counted fur bv reason of the combustible mate-
rials with which barns nre generally filled.—
Not a single human life is known to have been
lo^t, although nine of the houses struck were
inhabited.
