MISCELLANY.
Price of Negroes in Georgia.—A friend j
just from the up-country, informs us that at a '
sale of negroes that took place in NVarrenton.
Tuesday hist, young and likely negro men I
brought from $ 1200 tojs 15<K). Thesale was made |
on a credit of twelve months, and the pur- j
chases made by parties not interested in the >
property.
The Augusta Chronicle of yesterday says, at ‘
Sparta on Tuesday last, forty-one negroes, be- |
longing to the estate of Thomas L. NVynn, late i
of Hancock county, w ere sold, averaging sH4<i ,
each, including old negroes, children and in
fants. One hoy, twenty-twoyears old. a com
mon field hand, sold for SISOO. The sales
were on cash terms.
In NVilkes county, on the same day, lands
brought much higher prices than any one sup
posed they could command at the present time.

THE SLAVE TRADE.
The Columbia CaroJinian publishes the fol
lowing as the resolutions reported to the Sen- !
ate of South Carolina, by Mr. Mazyek, from
the special committee to whom was referred
that part of Gov. Adams’ Message which re
lates to the slave-trade :
Ilewlml. That the chief and almost entire -
productive industry of the slaveholding States, '
is agriculture, to their successful prosecution of i
which the lalmr of negro slaves is indispensa- I
bly necessary.
Itmolrril, That there is a great and growing I
deficiency of agricultural labor in the said i
States, w hich the natural increase of the slave I
population is inadequate to supply.
Jiemlted, That the effect of prohibiting the
importation of slaves from abroad is to limit
the expansion of the productive industry of the
said States, and of the population which that
industry sustains to the ratio of the natural in
crease of the slave population.
Itixulrul. That the importation of slaves from I
abroad would accelerate the development of
the agricultural resources of the slaveholding :
States, and promote their progress in wealth,
population, and general improvement, and that ;
such importation, carried on under proper reg
ulations, would not be inconsistent with the
principles of justice and humanity.
Ilttolreil, That the effect of an entire sup
pression of the African slave trade, would be
to contine the negriKs to their own country, |
ami preclude them from such means of relict
from the pressure of a redundant |>opiilatiou. as
might l>e afforded by emigration in the only
form in which its benefits can be extended to I
them.
Hetvlred, That the Act of Congress declaring I
the African slave trade to be piracy, it it lie '
understood ns affirming that it is piracy in the
nature of things and in the sense of the Consti- I
tution. affirms what is untrue; mid inasmuch
as it purports mid intends to convert into pirn- |
cy what is not so in the nature of things mid in I
the sense of the Constitution, the said act is tin- I
C'-nstitutional. null and void.
AMOUNT Os SPECIE IN THE COUNTRY.
It becomes important at the present time to ’
ascertain how much specie there is in the conn- ■
try ; in other words, the amount of that cur
rency which cannot be depreciated or in any !
way disturbed by any explosions. The specie ■
basis of the banks is stated tube about sixty'
millions, mid the inquiry turns to the amount
in genera! circulation among the people. On
this point the Philadelphia North American
says: j
We have taken the pains, for our own sat- J
isfaction, to look over the official figures for a i
series of years, in order to approximate a .safe '
opinion upon this subject, and they develop ’
some results of striking interest at the present
juncture, which ought to inspire feelings of en
couragement eveu in the most desponding.—
Notwithstanding the enormous depletion of
precious metals during the hist seven years, it
will be seen that the coinage in that period ex
ceeded the exports by mi amount almost equal
to the whole coinage during the prcceeding fif
ty-eight years:
