" Beauties of Iks System.—We understand, that
Go*. Dodge, of Wisconton, is in this city, en
deavoring to negotiate a Government drall so as
to obtain epacio to carry on important negotia
tions with the Indians in hisaiiperinUndeiicy.—
He has nut keen, so for os we con learn, success
ful, Tfie drall lsfora very considerable amount
°*We n |earn, that a Government draft, for sup
plies furnished lo the troops oil the upper Mis
sissippi, amounting to eight or ten thousand dol
lars, was presented to the Agency in this city a
few days since, and, payment in specie being re
fused, but paper tendered, it was protested.
We have reason to believe, that Mnj Rram
obtained a part of the specie which he is now
paving for horses—say thirty odd thousand dol
lars—from the IM Agency in this city. Anoth
er portion was found ill the hands of the Recei
ver of Public Money in this Land District.
We cannot hear, that Mnj. Mnsins line been
able to obtain a farthing for the payment of the
troops, for past services.
’ Thus, while the claims of the soldiers remain
unsatisfied, and the Army Contractors are kept
out of money long since earned, rhe specie can
be found lo buy horses—and Tor the most obvi
ous of reasons. The soldiers have no influence
in the government, and the contractors are mer
chants, and therefore “ought to break"; bin the
horse dealers and horse owners belong to the
class ofvoters, and promises lo ilient most be
kept inviolete at allhazards. The liunikiigconld
not be carried on, except by making "fi.li of one
aud Bosh of another,” aa here described.

Aurora Borealis.—On Saturday night, July
the lot, betweeuOaod 12 o'clock, the phenome
na of lira Aurora Borealis were presented with a
brilliancy uncommon lo this latitudo. The at
tnosphere was still, and the lernperatnre about
SO degrees—the face of the heavens unobscured
by a cloud, except in the Northern horixnn,
Where oneoflendeu hue,extending from Into20
degrees in height, end about 90 in breadth, e-
milted in quick succession silvery flushes o flight
uiug. Above this cloud end extending beyond
it towards tho West, was a horizontal light like
the break of day. Above this again, extending,
at a mean, about 45 degrees in altitude, and a-
bout 60 on each aide of the meridian, the light
wasofa reddish color—at times homogeneous in
some parts, whilst in other bright pyramidal
booms of white and red shot upwards to a great
height. Atone time, die appearances presented
were strikingly beautiful. A pyramid of light,
consisting of well defined beams of white and
red, basing 0 base of about 10 degrees, extended
over the polar atnr, without obscuring it, aud
reached the zenith with its spez. whilst an either
side very numerous and more slender beams
radiated from a point below the Northern hori
zon, ns if the bride of J npiler had constructed a
fan of tho emblems of his power.
We had not an opportunity of otiserviug the
dipping needle, but the paint of convergence of
the beams was probably lbs same as that to which
its South pole points at this place—at least, this
is in accordance with the observations of Dalton.

about 25 Indians, supposed to be Creeks. The
bodies of two of the latter killed were found,
and marks of blood wore discovered of othcis
wounded, or killed, that were taken away by

“Lata in the afternoon, we landed on the op

when a lurge flock of crows fit w out. and tny

and left mo sprawling in the sand. It was a

YVull street is lira great centre to which all gold
und silver die now tending. In consequence of
the great influx from the inloriur, and ftotn the
south, it declined yesterday 1 to 14 percent, be
fore lira foreign packets closed. Tho very greul
demand for Europe lies also slackened. Tliis
diminution for the London uiurkel is attributed
to the singularly udruil operations in lira cotton
market, sol on loot liy-31 r. Biddle about 3 weeks
ago. It is calculated that, through Iris southern
and northern agents, Ira has already remitted
$4,5(16.000 in cotton to meet his engagements in
Loudon. Paris and Amsterdam. U11 this opera
tion, taking into consideration die low price of
cotton and the variations of the southern und
northern currencies, it is probable he will make
a profit of 15 por cent., besides retaining oil his
gold and silver in his vaults, mid adding a mil
lion lo it, in order to ho enabled to resume aud
save his churtor from forfeiture next month,

MOBILE, July S.-r-Rcmarks—Tho market is
still dull—very dull. All business is at u dead
stand, almost. But there is u prospect ofbetter
limes. The Relief Bill of the Legislature, it is
thought, will give an iuipetiiajo business, end
sot its wheels ill moduli again. Tho provisions
of the Act allows the Banks lo increase
upon their present issues, ten millions of dollars.
This, together with tho laying iipnn lira shelf of
ilia duos to the Banks until auothei year, and
then usking fur only n quarter pari of Ilia a-
mount, inns! relieve onr commercial communi
ty, ond cause trade lo flourish again.

nolea clinched long ago
Music—Black Creek.
The Club retired at a late honr, greatly
pleased-wilh the pleasures ofthe day.
The miserably abortive efforts of the adverse
E lo effect the high standing of Mr. Gilmer
s the people, are ludicrous in the extreme.
Our . ppunents seem uot yet lo have learned,
that the failure of an attempt io injure the char
acter of the person assailed, inevitably exults it
with the people beyond its former position.—
We need not tell our readers ofthe total failure
of all the puerile assaults which have been
made on tho character of our candidate for Go
vernor. It may be enough for the present, mere
ly 10 say, that the charge upon which they most
Bangninely relied for liis defeat, (we mean, of
course, us sanguine as a meal hopeless cause
would allow them to ba,) is an act of Mr. Gil
mer, for which he will very probably obtain the
volea ofthe xalm and reflecting of both parties;
as one of the nrost salutary recommendations
ever made by a Governor ol Georgia.
It will not, of course, he expected by our
friends, that we should' undertake tho superflu
ous task of presenting, at ibis day,to the people of
Georgia, the’character of Mr. uilntor, or lira
claims which such a character make upon them
for their support. Both are known already as
well aa wo can make them known, not only to
tho people of Georgia, but to the people'of the
United States: for if any mou ever acquired u
more lofty and honorable reputation in Con
gress, titan Mr. Gilmer, we hare not yet hoard
of him. YVhilo unsullied patriotism, lofty in
tegrity, or purity of motive and conduct, ore
considered the high requisites of a public man,
tho claims of At r. Gilmer stand in no dnnger of
being disregarded.
