MUTUAL ASSURANCE.
We would c-'ill the attention of our citizens to
tho Folio wing ttrticU It is >vonh their consider
ation. Somethin" like tho plan stated could he
matured and adopted in this city.
From the New York Courier Sf Enquirer.
There exists n pressing necessity for the imme
diate organization of a Mutual Assurance Com
pany ; and we indulge the hope that the Commit
tee of .'Merchants who have the matter under con
sideration, will not delay their action.
The mode of organization and the principles
upon which to found, seem to he the only cause
of delay; hut most assuredly, in this respect we
may very safely adopt the simple and safe exam
ple set us by the Philadelphia Company. We
understand that in Philadelphia the association
consists of some thousands of individuals w ho are
required to pay into the common fund two and
a half per cent, on the value of property insured,
which is held by the association as a special depo
sit, to be returned at auy moment that the insured
may desire to discontinue his insurance. Sup
pose Jive thousand persous should unite in a Mu
tual Assurance Company, and that the average
insurance of each, should he $ 10,000. Two’and
a half per cent on $10,000, is $300, which paid by
five thousaud persons amounts to the sum of
one millon five hundred thousand dollars. The
money, which is the capital of the Company,
and which is continually varying, is loaned out
on bond and mortgage, and other securities, and
tho interest regularly invested and added to the
principal, from which all losses are paid. If a
person who has insured for $10,000 and paid his
$300 wishes to discontinue his insurance, he sim
ply calls at the office of the Company and the
amount is handed to him—his insurance having
cost him the interest, on bis $300 thus deposited,
or $18 per annum. So. if a incrclnut has iusu-
red his stock of goods for $100,000. by paying his
two and a half per ccut- $2,500, and at any time
wishes to reduce the amount of his property insu
red, he has only to step to the office, & withdraw
such portion of the special deposit as he deems
advisable. By this means every insurer has
nlwys an open policy which he may vary from
day to day to correspond with his sales and pur
chases.
We cannot well conceive of a more equitable
mode of insurance than this, and it certainly is
much cheaper than any other, as the whole is
procured by payiug or rather losing the interest
oil two and a half percent, of the amoout insured.
The rate of insurance in New Yolk is about one
per cent or one huudred dollars on $10,000. whe
reas by tho mode Imre suggested and so success
fully practised in IMi ladelphia, it would be only
eighteen dollars !
As to the safely from this mode there cau be
uo doubt. Tho amount immediately placed in
deposit, if such an office should he opeued, would
be several Millions, which would be promptly re
turned to the community in the shape of loans.
The interest would he forever added to the cap
ita], and thus the fund would not only he sufficient
to meet all contingencies, but be always ou the
increase and giving additional security to the in
sured.
Let the committee who have this subject iu
hand immediately designate twenty five Directors
for such a Company who shall hav the power for
ever to fill vacancies and manage the affairs of the
Company: and if they think pioper, let them re
ceive in deposit five instead of two and a half per
ceut, on the amount insured; and they will, in less
than ten days, have the city thus iusured. It is
only necessary to start it under the auspices of
twenty five or forty of our most respectable mer
chants, to iusure for it universal popularity. As
it is, owuers of property cannot retire to their beds
with any feeling of-security against the dangers
offire. .
Several mouths must ensue before the peop.i
cad be furnished with the laws passed at the la.e
session. We have, therefore, for the gratifica
tion of nnr readers, perused the laws at tho Sec
retary of Slate's office, and briefly stated the ob
jects and purposes of those we have deemed most
interesting: which, with those that are usually,
from their general importance, published by the
Executive, will enable our readers to form a
pretty correct idea of the kusiuossof the session.

HINTS TO DYSPEPTICS.
We hear many of our friends complain of dys
pepsia, oppression from food, flatulency after
meals- Aw. Those troubled in this w ay we re
commend the study of the following rules which
wo have met with iu the course of our medical
reading:
1. As the stomach secretes bc.tter fluids and
acts with more vigor when moderately filled than
when excessively distended, that no more be token
into this orgau than it can well manage. The
appetite is not si safe guide to determine the
requisite quantum: experience must he the teacher;
what has been once found too mnch mutt he di
minished; aud the rule whru fixed mustde adhered
to,^whatever the-lemplation to violate it; for the
appetite is often better than the digestion.
2. As different substances possess, iu dffereui
degrees,the property of solubility iu the stomach,
it will be highly proper to make choice of those
which this organ can most easily dispose of. It
is to he rememberd that tho most nutritious sub
stances are not always the most digestible. The
acceuirated juice of meut in form of soup.thoiigli
highly nutritious, is not always borne well. The
quantity of fluid it contains may offend the sto
mach, and bciug sivallo veil without mastication,
it is not like solid food, duly mixed with saliva-
Animal jolly, which is purely nutritions, L
difficult of digestion, and must he avoided by the
dyspeptic. Tho articles of most easy solution
appear to he solid animal food roasted or broiled
and fresh fish; among vegetables, bread and po
tatoes hold the highest place; among the least
solunble are fat, tendinous and gristly parts, the
skiu of the fruits and the sweet vegetables.—
Butcher’s meat is more digestible than poultry;
fullgrown mea*. th m youug, aud beef aud inutiou
titan any other.
3. The introduction of a variety of food into
the stomach, at one meal, is pernicious; for pos
sessing different degrees of solnhility, they require
dieffereut periods for digestion and thus the pro
cess is distuhed. Borne kinds of mixtures arc
more injurious than others. Milk or cream,-or
substances containing them should uot be taken
immediately after dinner. Pastry is heterogeneous
in its own nnturc to condemn it. Fruit had bet
ter tie deferred till evening. Cheese has hecn
said to digest every thing hut itself, hut things like
persons, whose elements are discordant, are to he
hel<I suspected—Above all, avoid new cheese or
curds, which, in defiance of all peptic precepts,
arc so often proffered to tempt the unwary.
4. Thedistentiun of the stomach is an evil in
itself, therefore drink hut little at dinner. If not
thirsty, take uo liquid; a cup of tea, a few hours
after, will be more grateful, aud will fully supply
all deficiencies.
5. If possible bring your meals within a rea
sonable distance, so that lunches, or intermediate
repasts, may be avoided. They are always taken
iu haste, arc. uncertain iu quality and .quantity
and are swallowed antidst the pressure and anx
iety of business; all which circumctnuecs me un-
frieudjy’to their good effect. Besides, if every
call of appi tite is at once indulged,the fancy will
he very likely to form natural wants, the gratifi
cation of which is only an injury.
6. Avoid eating when greatly heated or fati
gued. Give the body a little rest aud the stom
ach will tho better perform its duties.
7 Eat slowly, nnd avoid iu tense thought during
dinner. In order to effect both objects, if you
have auy thing to say, address a. few words to
your next neighbor on some topic of general or
local interest. The meal will not ho so quickly
despatched, but a little will go further aud will sit
better. A silent cater will always eat most, aud
hr tbe least benefited by his meal. Conversation

Whereas, the legislature of Georgia, while it has hi
therto been directed to promote thegeuerul good ot its
citizens, has at the «an.e time kept constantly in view
the Indian tribes settled within its chartered limits ;
nnd whereas time and experience have demonstrated
that the habits and principles of the red man are adv
erse to the progressive and enlighleued character of
the present day, and the longer lie is kept in the neigh
borhood, and the oftener he is brought iuto contact
with civilized man, that he rapidly sinks into a corres
ponding statp of degradation, and whereas the present
executive df the United States has, for years past us
ed the most untiring etforts to transfer the remaining
reimwt of the Cherokee Indians to a climate aud soil
beyond the Mississippi, far more eligible for them than
that they at present occupy, w ilh an offer of protection
and ample support during their removal and early set
tlement : they would have been surrounded with'com-
forts which are withheld from the yeomanry of our
country who emigrate to the west,- to it country to
which other Indian tribes have voluntarily gone, and
in which tho national character and habits of the Che-
rnkees would remain unchanged. It is assumed with
confidence that the great mass o r those Indians would
long ago have acceded to these humane and benevo
lent offers, but for tbe intriguing and selfish motives
of their chiefs, in whom, by old custom, they have hi
therto confided their destinies- and whereas a crisis
has arrived when necessity demands that the £ast pol-
cj of the State, in relation to this tribe of inuians,
sr.uu id 1;^ carried out, to wit: securing to these abori
gines a distant establishment, where they can enjoy
their old and established habits and peculiar modes of
government, and thereby keep up their identity as a
separate people ; to place our citizens in possession of
undisturbed lands which have long been withheld from
them ; the occupation and cultivation of which would
strengthen the State and add to the stun of human hap
piness. And whereas recent and tneluncholy experi
ence has proven beyond doubt that a white popula
tion and dense Indian one, cannot with safety inter
mingle in the same region of country, especially in the
Cherokee counties, in many of which the Indians pre
dominate, whose minds are uninformed or unintlueu-

There have been no importaut movemeuts iu

of Dou Carlos appears to be decliuing. Report
says that Russia’aud its associate powers were

Galligttaui’s Messenger of the 19th says, ‘‘\Ve

parture of Mr. Barton, the Americau Charge
({‘Affaires. He is still iu Paris. He has, how-
cvet, for some lime quitted the Hotel of the A-
mericau Legation, aud uo longer transacts busi
ness in an official capacity. Mr. Brent, the Con
sul of the United States, now signs passports,
and performs the routine business.”
Paris, Wednesday, Nov. 11.—the Messager
says :—“ The Charge d’Affaires of tbe Uuited
States of America, having demanded his pass
ports received them yesterdaj^moruing at ten
o’clock, and immediately after ordered prepara
tions to be made for bis departure ou Saturday.
All the papers of the Legation had before beeu
seut off to the Uuited States, and persons well
informed of the state of things say, that the pe
riod of the arrival of the vessel that is conveying
them, will determine the tone of the President’s
Message at the opening of Congress. If these
documents arrive in time, Gen. Jackson will
throw out fire and flame against the French Go
vernment, whom it will accuse of the infraction
of treaties: in the contrary case, he will merely
announce to Congress that he is waiting for the
answer to the note delivered by bis orders to the
Cabinet of the Tuilleries,”
Paris, Nov. 11, (Eveniug.)—The statement
of the Charge d’Affaires of America having re
ceived his passport is confirmed *, iu consequence
the French Charge d’Affaires will be recalled
from Washington.
The Impartial states, that wheu Mr. Barton,
the Charge d‘ •'ffaires of the United States, de
manded his passports, they were given to him,
unaccompanied by any expression of regret at
his departure, or any wishes for a more pneifie
tone being adopted on the part of his Govern
ment. It approves of this , since any iudicatiou
of the fear of consequences of his departure
would be a compromise of the national dignity.
Atlhe same time there is uo fear of an imtnedi-
diate rupture, and the choice of a successor to
the warlike Jackson, will remove most of the
difficulties in the way of negotiation. Howev
er it may turn out, vague appreheusious are still
caused by this affair, and it is possible that busi
ness may be seriously affected by it.

SPEECH OF THE EMPERORNICIIOLAS.
Paris, Nov. 11.—Mention has been several
rimes made by the Getmau papers of a speech
addressed by the Emperor Nicholas to ihe dep
utation or Municipal body of Warsaw, upon his
late visit to that city, which was only remarkable
for its extreme severity and irritatiug character.
Although these papers have uot published this
document, the following is said to be au authen
tic copy, which, from its tone aud spirit, we are
led to wish may be spurious:
“Geutlemeu!—I know that you have wished
to address me, aud am acquainted with the con
tents of your intended address; hut to spare you
Trotn delivering falsehood, 1 desire that i* may
net he pronounced. Yes, geutlemeu. it is to save
you from falsehood; for 1 know that your senti
ments arc not such as you wish to make me lie-
lievo them to be. How can I rut faith in them,
when ytfu held the same language to mo on tho
eve of the revolution ? Are you not the same
persous who talked to mo five and eight years
ago of fidelity aud devoteduess, “aud made me
the first protesiatious of attachment, and yet," in
a very few days after, you violated your oaths,
and committed the most violent actions ? The
Emperor Alexander, who did more for yen than
an Emperor of Russia ought to have done, who
iienpcd benefits upon you, who favored you more
than h-s own subjects, and who reudered your
nation the most flourishing and happy ; the Em
peror Alexander was treated with the blackest
ingratitude.
You never could make yourselves contented
with your most advantageous position, aud. iu
the end, became the destroyers of your own hap
piness. I thus tell you the truth in order to throw
a true light upon our relntivo positions, and that
you may kuow upon tvhat you have ta depend,
for I an: now seeiug ami speaking to you for the
first time since tho disturbances Gentlemen, t\ e
require actions aud not mere words; repentance
should come from the heart; I speak to you
without auger, and you must perceive that I ant
perfectly calm; I have uo rancour, and 1 will
do good even-hi spito of .yourselves. The Mar-
ed ; but as the quantity subsequently offeted
more than sufneum for the demand, tbe tBarkel

meritsn without maintaining the improvement-

The Courier Francois says, that in the event
of a war with America. England would become
the intrepotfor the commerce of tho two nations,
and iu so far would he a gainer ; hut that still it
is highly probable that Congress will uot adopt
the warlike views of the Frcsideut, uuless the
majority become very much changed in their o-
pinions. A declaration of 11011 intercourse would
be followed by tho stoppage of that trade, which
is now carried on in 300 American vessels, aud
which brings into prance sixty millions of pounds
of cuttou. The southern Stales, it is know n, are
all against a rupture that would ruin them; and
tho principal toivos, already threatened by the
abolition of tho batiks, arc not at all inclined to
admit that tho nniioua! honor is engaged iu the
affair of the twenty five millions.
The Temps blames the Ministry for their iude-
cisiou throughout the whole of the American af
fair, and sajs, that either they should have deba
ted the articles of the treaty anew, and have es
tablished in a more decided manner its basis—
and then, if out voted in the Chamber, have re
commenced a new svstem of uegoliations, by
which the faith due to America, aud the honor
and constitutional forms of France, could have
beta respected; or else they should have made
their ministerial cxisteuce depend upon’the pass
ing ol the treaty by the Chambers in an unuiu
ti nted form, nnd even without the amendment of
M. Volazc. If this had been done, ministers
could have held a more vigorous position both
with regaid to France and the United States.—
As it is. tho country Inis been burdened with 25
millions of debt, a quarrel wilh America has uoi
been avoided, and the commercial world is kept
