From the Correspondence of the I\ew Y ork Courier. s Washington, March 27. - mV letter of the 25th, 1 expressed an opinion i Senaie Sub-Treasury bill, in its present that the . s ,h e House. A vote has been calculated to confirm that opin tatteuui read, r Cauibreleng "!;; ed t refer it to the Committee of Ways and S “ whereupon some informal conversation Mean.,- 4 . ‘ moved to lay it on ensued, ana . one of t)je questions which the table. 1 /|«bale: but must be taken does not admit ot u. > Vlr. Glascock requested, as a matte? of CClUte cv the gentleman from Virginia to withdraw his motion for a few moments, he (Mr. G.) pledging himself to renew the motion before he sat do»il, It was accordingly withdrawn, whereupon the gentleman from Georgia urged with ardor, his ob jections to the proposition, of Mr. Patton. The ,notion was then renewed, and a call of the House ordered. The niotiou to lay the bill on the table was taken by yeas and nays, and stood—Ayes 10b, navs 97 ■ On the question to lay on the table, tV friends of Mr. Calhoun voted with the admin istration party in the negative. I think it proba ble however,’that they thus voted, intending to commit it. for the purpose of inserting, if possi ble, Mr. Calhoun's specie section, and if that at tempt should fad them to vote against its passage. But this is matter ot conjecture. At the Extra Session, on the motion of Mr. Clark, the hill was in like manner laid on the ta ble. The vote stood, ayes 118—noes 107. Ol the 107 there are now four vacancies, viz. two in Mississippi, and two in Maine. The whole num ber of members is 212; but there are four vacan cies, and (leu. Ripley detained at home by sick ness; thus leaving 2.17 members. There were present to-dav, including the Speaker, 204. Be sides some of ikase who were present and voted against laying on the table, on the main question would vote against the bill. Os the absentees, my own opinion is, but 1 have not the yeas and nays before me, a majority are opposed to the bill in its present shape. So that whatever view is taken of the question, there is but little prospect of its parsing without a change in all its leading fea tures. Mr. Cainhi-’. 'tig’s Bill, on the same suojeet, \jt remains Irefore the House; hut you max rest assured, in the present state of feeling, he will not call it up for consideration, before the Gist week in Mav, unless driven to it by some action of the llouSe. Now is the time for the people to send their remonstrances against the whole Sub-1 ic.i surv project, i'll * rebuke unicli lias been giv'ii f„ the loco foeo party, in both branches of the Na tional Legislature, within the last forty-eight hours, has already had a most salutary effect.— Lot the people act, and relief will come much sooner than they anticipate. The Loco Focus, (or rather their managers) are to have a caucus this evening, preparatory to a motion which will he made tomorrow, to reconsi der the vote of todav, laving the bill on the table. Bv virtue of (he driil sv stem, and an indifference mi the part of the Whigs, the vote to reconsider may prevail; but the chances are against it. Mv raemorv is not very good, hut 1 think in the year*lß3-1, Mr. Clay’s land bill was sent from the Senate to the House, and the latter body forth with laid it o.i the table. This was done bv a House opposed to Mr. Clay, and to the Senate as then constitut 'd. The official organ was tuned up on tli ■ occasion, and indicated, b_v its language, this procedure was evidence ot the contemptuous feelings of the House, for tire land bill aud its author. Well, this may, or it may not have been true. Emanating from the source it did, it pro bably was not true. Hut what shall we say of a House, professedly by a decided majority triendly to the Administration, and thus cavalierly treat ing:! i><t in .(sure of that administration? 1 know wlnt tin; hangers-on ol power will say. i hey wail say that tireir brethren have turned traitors. fs it not surprising that the administration should adli 're with sueli pertinacity to a measure, known to be so ruinous and so odious as tl?-.' Sub r I reasury Bill? There is not a crowned head in Europe whose minister would dure thus to beard the peo ple. During the reign of George the 1\ , the British tnlinn w,u agitated and convulsed on the question of divorcing the King and the. Queen. It was a favorite measure with the King. Tin; minister laid before parliament a bill to ef fect that object. It was ordered to a secoud read ing by a majority of about si.rty. It was ordered to a third reading by a majority of about ten.- With this small majority in liis favor, the minis ter did not dare to proceed, hut abandoned the measure, as unpopular, and therefore unsafe to press upon the nation. Such was the ellect ot public opinion upon the action of the Government under a monarchy. How is it in the United States? What degree of respect for the wishes and feelings of the peo ple, does the President, his or Ills Chancellor of the Exchequer evince ? State al ter State has abandaned the Executive, and de nounced, as destructive of tlieir best interests, the attempt to grasp the money ot the people by the aid of a Treasury Bank ; and yet the measure is urged by all the means which power and influence can control or command. After laying the Senate bill on the table, tne House took up, in committee of the whole, the army appropriation bill. The Senate lias been all day engaged on the Cumberland Road Bill. THE SPY IN WASHINGTON. From the Lons Island Star. THE SUFFERING MECHANICS. Fellow Citizens.— More than 500 laborers have been lately discharged from the Brooklyn Yard, in the inclemency of winter. It is stated iy them, and believed, that more than half ot them have been unnecessarily discharged. Many fami lies have thus suddenly become destitute, in a tone of universal ; and are forced to seek relict from cold and hunger in the assistance of the cliai itahle. The 'Brooklyn Soup House Association, daily distributes charity to hundreds whom the I nited States of America ’ ave abandoned to the rigors of winter. Every individual discharged could have been advantageously employed in the Navy Yard, upon work ol some kind or other. To whom then are we indebted lor this unparalleled econemy ? To the commander of the Navy Yard ? or to the head ot the Navy Department ! Probably to neither. I lie source is higher up. A damning responsi bility rests some where. It has lately become an orthodox tenet at Washington, that'the Govern ment and people should each take care of them selves! This surely is a practical illustration of the theory. The Hon. Henrv Clay, of Kentucky, lately pre sented to the Senate of the United States, a me morial signed by 1100 citizens of Brooklyn and New \ ork, stating that they had been ordinarily employed in the Navy Yard, and petitioning to be re-employed in the completion of vessels on the stocks. Mr. Clay addressed the Senate on the subject of the petition, in a most feeling and impressive man ner, anil said that “looking to the condition of these unfortunate people, he could not but concur with the sentiment expressed at a large and respec table meeting lately held in New York, that the question now was, not ‘bank or no haul;,’ but 'bread or no bread !” The government party profess to be the especial friends iff the poor, and constantly endeavor to ar ray the poor against the rich. Yet fello w citizens, these petitioners arc compelled to pray in vain for relief, to that same party so very friendly to the poor. Nay more, they are compelled to seek for friends and advocates of their cause in tiio Biliks of the Whig pany, whom the government have stig matised as foe* to the needy! How true the home ly adage, “acts speak louder than words.” In political life, public functionaries for miscon duct, arc amenable to the public. J'i the naval department the espoinage of the public is seldom exercised, because its officers are not elective; and because the consequences to the jJttblic, of official misconduct, are generally remote, i”;pre are situations, however, even in that department in w hich official misconduct may directly prejudice the public; and in such cases a liberal mind will readily concede to the injured, the right of inves tigation. In the name, therefore, of the eleven hundred petitioners to Congress, I desire the commandant of the Naval staiion at Brooklyn, to explain the cause of so many discharges, and to slate the number of men that might have been ad vnntageou-ly employed.—As he has incurred pub lic censure by the numerous and unnecessary dis charges at his naval station, 1 deem no apology ne cessary for thus arraigning him at the bar of pub lic opinion; believing that he will be equally ready to incur just responsibility, and disabuse the pub lic if unjustly censured. IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT—A JAIL. It is u horrid place —aud many a time, when through the grates of my prison window, I have watched the rays of the sett.ng sun as they gilded some neighboring spire, I have wondered that any mm could find it in his heart to put a fellow being in jail for debt. I hav eat last given up the hopes o'. Liberty—-bUsseil Liberty ! L can hardly w rife the word w itliout dropping a tear a* the recol lection of (he joyous days of Liberty which are gone forever. lam .-ad when I think how they have fied away like a dream and that mother 1, nor my creditors can ever rc< all them. W hen 1 enter ed the wadis of this terrible jail, in which amid the rattling of chains I am writing this little of my life I was young, iu good health, blessed with a w ife w hom 1 adored, aud as fine a hoy as ever smiled in the face of a father. The hoy is dead; and my wife is no more,. She was indeed a most excellent w oman hut she was-wounded to the soul by the horrors of our situation. Her spirit was broken (low n, and she, with the infant that caused her sickness, died in jail, shortly after my imprisonment. Minder —A murder was committed last week in Georgetown, Georgia, opposite this place by one Nathaniel Venerable, who has for some time past been a resident of Irwinton. He struck the deceased two blows on the head with a Gun, w hich eaus.i his death in a few hours. The deceased was a tailor, by the name of Mc- Lean, said to he a harmless inoffensive, man. Venerable was arrested the next day by our citi zens, and delivered to the civil authorities of Geor gia. He is now in Randolph Jail to await his tri al.—lrwin ton II: i aid. MONTGOMERY, March 30. The peace of our City has again keen disturbed, by a gross violation of the rights of reason, law, justice, and humanity. On Wednesday evening last, "about I o’clock, an affray commenced on Main St. near the Montgomery Hall. The per sons engaged were Win. J. M ooney and Kenyon Mooney his son, Edward Bell, and Bushrod Bell, .Tr". the first received a wound in the abdomen, made bv that fatal instrument the Bowie-Knife, which caused his death in about 15 hours The second was shot in the side, and would doubtless have been killed, had not the hall partly lost its force by first striking his arm. The third received a shot in the neck, and now lies without hope of recovery. The fourth escaped unhurt, and we understand has tied. This is a brief statement of one of the bloodiest lights that we have ever heard of. There are numerous stories in relation to its cause, progress, dec. and the entire facts, at this particular time, we expect it would he almost im possible to obtain. LATEST FROM FLORIDA By a slip from the Savannah Georgian dated March 30tli, it is stated that information had been received from a letter dated March 20th, at Tam pa Bay, that between five and six hundred Indians are on their way to Tampa from Ft. Jupiter,* under the escort of the Tennessee volunteers and a por tion of the 2d Regiment of Dragoons, and that Major Loomis of the Ist Infantry had captured two Indian women who say that Sam Jones had <rone to the South, and Aligator to the West, that both were willing to surrender if requested. That Major Loomis had circumnavigated lake Gheehe bee in boats. It is'also stated that Captain Hcwson while cross ing Cypress Swamp struck the trail of Indians, pursued and overtook them, about 2o in number. Capt H. lost four of his men in the attack, was wounded himself in the abdomen, but not danger ously. He took four prisoners, and killed sever al of the Indians—the others escaped. The news of the captute ofsoo Indians &c. by Gen Jesup is confirmed, says the Georgian, by letters received at Ft. Mellon—from which their informant left on Sunday baforc the 30th ult, Scavengers Wanted. — The "V evay Times advertises for a few thousand ducks, with broad bills to shovel the mud out of the streets THE GEORGIA MIRROR. aa tuft’d a FLORENCE, GA. Monday, April 10, IN»8. W e are glad to find that the Commissioners appointed under the act incorporating Florence, have entered upon the discharge of their duties, and that ordinances have been passed for the bet ter regulation of our town. Those chaps who have been in the habit of getting the caloric up on the Sabbath day, and cutting considerable swells in our streets, had better keep “wide awake and duly sober,” for if they fall into the iron grasp of our marshal, they will be handled without gloves. \\ e refer the reader to another part of our paper for the Ordinances passed by the Board. A rencontre took place at Roanoke, three miles below this place, on Thursday evening last, be tween Thomas N. Statham and James Temple ton, in which the former was severely stabbed in several places, and it is feared he cannot survive. Templeton lias been committed to await his trial. THE REPORT. In another part of our paper may he found the able report of the Convention lreld in Augusta, for which we wish to bespeak an attentive perusal. No Sputhern man, it seems to us, can rise from the reading of that paper, without being fully con vinced that it is high time the South should take care of herself. If indeed it be true, as is argued in the report, and we have no doubt hut what it Is, that the action of the Federal Government in the unequal collection and disbursment of the public revenue has been somewhat against the South, while it has been favorable to the North, are we not greatly to blame in lending our aid to the accumulation of capital in the hands of Nor thern Importer? to do that for ns, which we can do much better for ourselves. Calculating the expenditures of the Federal Government for the last twenty years, ending 183(1, they vvere ascertained |o have been four hundred and twenty millions of dollars, of which one hun dred and thirty millions were consumed inpay ment of the national debt, of the remainder two hundred aril tm millions were expen ded in the Northern, and eighty millions in the Southern States, making a difference of one hundred ami thirty millions in favor of the North. During this period the South has paid to the Nor thern cities not less perhaps than one hundred millions more to import and export for her. Is it any wonder then that our friends North of us should have fattened into bloated importance, and assumed the right to dictate to us in matters of greater moment ? If we wish cotton shipped to Europe it must pass through the hands of a Northern merchant; if we want goods from Europe, they must come to us through the same hands, as if we were not com petent to transact our own business—surely it must be thought that tve are a race of inferior beings. \Ve are greatly at fault in all this matter, for strange as it may appear, it is nevertheless true, that we seem to set a higher value upon every thing that conies from the North. Are we in want of preachers ? they must come from the North; a teacher for a country school or college ? lie must come from the North ;''bhWve want corn brooms and axe helves ? they must conic from the North; garden seed and wooden nutmegs? why they must all come from the North. Strange in fatuation, shameful dependence. It is time that we should think and act lor ourselves. Our means are ample—let them be but properly employed and all will be well. But read the report. GEN. SCOTT. We see in several of our exchange papers that Gen. Scott is again to be sent to the South for the purpose of taking charge of tli«‘- United States’ forces stationed in the Cherokee Nation to insure the removal of the Indians to the West, in case they should be disposed to resist the execution of the treaty. But a few more weeks have now to elapse when the Cherokees must remove, "peaceably if t'nnj will, but forcibly if necessary .” There is conse quently hut little time to he lost, and the Govern ment cannot act with too much promptness in re lation to this matter. We believe that if those in authority had dealt with the Semmoles and Creeks in the way their duties and the character of the Indians required, helpless Florida would not now he bleeding at every pour; the distress and devas tation which was suffered and w itnessed by our citizens, would never have been felt by Georgia and Alabama, and the cries of lamentation would not have been heard from the widowed wife and orphaned children; our Treasury would not have been drained of its millions, neither would our country's arms have suffered dishonor and dis grace. The Cherokees may be encouraged by the success of the Seminolcs, and headed by John Ross may break out axil do immense mischief. — We trust however that our rulers have learnt a lesson from the past, and have been taught effec tually the force of tlie adage “in the time of peace prepare for war.” M e have all confidence in the patriotism and activity of our worthy Governor, and believe that every thing has and will he done on his part, to insure the removal of these deluded people. THE SUB-TREASURY. It will be seen by reference to the correspon dence of the New-York Courier & Enquirer, which wc publish in another part of today’s paper f that the Sub-Trwisury experiment has met with ratheraeool reception in ihe House of Represen tatives, liavmg boon laid upon the table without discussion, w here, we trust it will forever sleep the ■txep of death. The Representatives of the people have, so far, acted with an independence of character well worthy the American people. While this bill has almost wholly engrossed the attention of the Senate ever since the commencement of the ses sion, and after being altered, amended and meta morphosed so as scarcely to be recognized by its authors, has passed und tumid its way to the House, where it lias received a blow, which we trust will prove fatal. They may perhaps reconsider the vote they have given, as the party in favor of the measure are mustering up their rank and file men, but we think it very doubtful. r l lie members of the House must certainly know, yea, they do know, that the people are sick and tired of experiments, with this fact before their eyes we do not think they w ill dare so far incur tlie displeasure of the people, even should they reconsider, as to adopt the bill upon its filial passage. May we noi now indulge the hope that the peo ple’s rights and interests have been maintained, and their liberties rescued from the grasping hand of usurpation which lias been stretched out in the shape of this Sub-Treasury Bill ? Hgve the Rep resentatives of the people fulfilled the trust repos ed in them by their constituents, and discharged tneir duty fearless of the consequences which ninv flow from the imperial seat upon which Martin Van Burensits? We hope—we believe they have. And 1* ii pot time that Mr. Van Buren’s knees had began to smite, like Beltshazzar of old, because ol the hand writing that is thus plainly to be seen oil the wall in this action of the House, and the Jiearfy apprTP'uJ it will meet with from all parts of the Union. By this let him learn that though by chance, elevated to power add tfust, those who raised him will not, cannot stand still and see him (ear away their l ights, and jeopardize their interest, without speaking in a voice which is not to be misuuderstood, or passed by unheed ed and disregarded. MIL CUTHBERT. We wonder what the friends of this gentleman will have to say in relation to the course pursued by him in moving to strike out the favorite section of the .Sub-Treasury bill for which the Van l>u ren party have so faithfully and zealously conten ded, and hv tjie success of which motion all their labor has b/en lost, tlieir main object defeated and tlieir plans and intentions entirely frustrated. It is true he voted for the Sub-Treasury bill, but was it such an one as the party wished or their leader desired ? We are certain it is not. Upon the point of the hard currency system, they have been particularly tenacious. It was for this Mr. King was forced into retirement, and for the same reason Messrs Grantland and Towns have been severely rebuked, and as Mr. Outhbert has gone in direct opposition to this part of the bill, we pre sume if they pursue tire course they have hither to adopted, that they will “talk to him like a book," Irom which lie may read a lesson lie will not very soon forget, if they do not invite him home in or der that soure more pliant tool may be sent in his stead. We shall see. Indian Deprcdudons. —We are happy to sec that the citizens of the Creek portion of Alabama, are alive to tireir interests in this matter. The •letter of Mr. Lewis lays the subject before them in its true lieht, and places the claims of the suf fers upon the true grounds on which they should stand. That it was the duty of the government to protect the settlers from the depredations of tire Indians, it seems to us no one will be arrogant t«r weak enough to deny ; and that tlie proper au thorities were informed of the danger and threat ened hostilities, in time to have arrested them, is also proven by the correspondence between tlie .Secretary of War, and the Executive of Alaba ma. Inasmuch, then as the Government did not interpose to arrest the arm of the ruthless savage, either believing, or affecting to believe, that there was no immediate danger to be apprehended, with what shadow of Justice can Congress deny the claims of our citizens for indemnity. The citizens of Russell have held a meeting, to consider of the best means of laying before Con gress, correct information, relative to tlie extent of hostilities in 1830. We assure our friends in Russell, and elsewhere that Barbour county is not behind them in active measures going to effect the same object. The citizens of this town and vi cinity, held a meeting on the 23d ult. and appoin ted a committee, to examine into the extent of trie hostilities, and whatever might be of benefit to the sufferers, and forward the same with as little delay as possible to mr distinguished Representatives in Congress. We trust other counties adopted a similar "course, and w ill lay before Congress such a mass of testimony as cannot fail to convince the most skeptical, of the justness of their claims.— Irwinton Hearld. We understand that a meeting of representatives of the different banks of Georgia and South Caro lina, will beheld in Charleston, on the first of next month, to take into consideration such measures as’will be proper for them to pursue, and especi ally in regard to the retnrn to specie payments. We presume before that day the banks of New- York will have decided their course in regard to the same matter. — Recorder.
