G. W. BROWN. April 6—l—sm Athens, July loth, 18.33. JMcssrs, Editors —A report is prevailing, and ; to which wide circulation has been given bv the j newspapers, that I have changed mv opinion j on the Bank question. Lest silence on my ! part might seem to give it even the semblance > of tmth, I am constrained reluctantly to appear in your paper to contradict such an unjust and ; unfounded suggestion. Such report, as I un-1 derstand, hw#gone forth by reason of a letter j addressed to some individual in Philadelphia ; through the agency of one of tilt; Directors of the Branch of the United Stales’ Bank, at Wash ington * ity, by giving information of a transac tion in that Bank relative to niyseif, which it shall be the purpose of this communication to explain, and will, I have no doubt, he perfectly satisfactory to every human being, of the least liberality, who shall do me the justice to read it. ; When I left home, in November last to take j my seat in Congre-s, I carried with me a large ! sum of money, in Georgia currency, to fulfil a contract for machinery in the City of New York. I applied at the above Bank to exchange it for United States, Bills, hut upon being in formed that a premium of seven percent, would he -ii n anded, I declined it, and determined to Sfiti'i it back so Augusta, for the purpose of pur chasing a Bill of Exchange, where, as I was informed, one could he obtained for one and a half'per cent. Accordingly, by a safe private conveyance, I forwarded it to an individual, with an earnest request to effect the purchase end return the draft without delay, a.- by mv contract I was to be entitled to a deduction of three per cent, for prompt payment. This took place on the 13th of January, and on the 28tl> of the same month, I received a letter from the bearer of the funds informing me of their delivery, and enclosing the receipt of the person to whom they had been remitted. From the last individual I could learn nothing, though re peatedly addressed. Thus strongly threatened with a heavy loss, and still more harrassod by the consequences it was likely t<> involve, I, of cours-.awaited the ex'-tit with unusual anxiety and. as might well be imagined, with no little interruption to my public duties. 1 was held in this suspense during the whole session of Congress, and finally, was informed by a friend, to whom I had written on the subject, that my agent had used the money and had failed. This information I received on the sth of March, the day after Congress adjourned, and hot twodavs alter 1 had voted, in a minority oi 41, that I beliex'ed the Bank of the I nit'd States an unsafe depository of the public money. It is impossible, if it were necessary to descrih’ the state of my feelings at the moment. 1 large sum of money faithlessly embezzled- in urgent contract claiming performance—without the means of satisfying the demand—from home, and- qurtitly away from all my e - sources—in a land of strangers, and compelled I . circumstances to r< main at Washington, it may readily be conceived what was mv situa ti n, and th ‘ situation may be safely submitted t the reaction of a!> • ini con munity. 1 had sutficien* proof, at the time, what generous minds will do under such an unlooked for diffi ‘ii ty. As soon as I read the letter announcing mv misfortune, I handed it over to someone of the gen l-tnen will w hom I bearded, and, men uon and the distressing perplexity it occasioned j in the failure of my engagement, a matter of much more concern to me, than the less itself. In an instant and unsolicited,General Hohmson a Senator from Indiana,stept aside to a table, mid knowing the amount I wanted, (being con siderably h s# than I had lost) dr< w a note for it, endorsed it himself, and was immediately and voluntarily succeeded in that kind and magnan imous act by Judge Manghatn, and General Hawkins of North Carolina, Judge Bouldin of Virginia, Col. King of Alabama, and Captain M Intire of Maine, who returned and presented 11’ me, remarking that they hoped it would re lieve mv present embarrassment. In the glow of feeling which such a generous a< t inspired, and certain!v in violent contrast with those un der which but a few moments before I had suf fered, I accepted their kind offer, though it was to borough money from a Bank against which, politiciaHy, I was and am still opposed, not however without expressing mv apprehension that their friendly interlerence w'ould he una vailing, or that an improper construction would be placed upon the transaction. To obviate which Col. King, with that, readiness deman ding my most tinginlified acknowledgements, repaired with the note to the Bank, explained fully all the circumstances under which the loan was asked, and was wholly instrumental in Qnrfuking the accommodation. The Bank asked, and I have no doubt expected, nothing else but ample security for their money. And though the above endorsers are worth two hun dred thousand dollars, yet to observe strictly the rules of the Bank, its officers required of me a town endorser, or xvhat was tantamount to it. This was complied with. But a day or two after, Gen. Van Ness, the President of one of the City Banks, hearing of my loss and tin great inconvenience to which it subjected me, wry generously offered me the same accommo dation. Thus then, a loan sought in conse quence of an urgent and unforeseen necessity, created by as unexpected ar act of perfidy—ac quired in the most open manner —upon the best security—from an institution whose business it is to lend money for gain—professing to be im partial in its favors, and made in strict compli ance with its rules, has been tortured into a peace offering, designed and so received by me, to quiet mv opposition to its re-establish- ’ inent! 1 ,anguage tails me to xpress, in a sense of becoming sell-respect, the scorn which is due to such heartless illibcrahty. I will however, do the officers of the Bank the justice to say, I do not believe they intended their agency in this matter, to have any such effect, and there, fore can not be so illiberal as to expect it, what - ever may he the views of a single director, in the unkind and not less false suggestion to which his'gratuitous information has given rise 1 have taken the liberty to mention the names of my endoisers, w ith no motive of an ostenta tious display of the high character, w ith which my credit has been supported, but to avail my self of their distinguished reputation to sustain the facts of my statement, so far as connected with the Bank transaction ; and to a public not. always too creduh us or indulgent towards a narrative intended to tefuse a slander, I have thought it not amiss to tender a list of the wit— nesses. A, S. CLAYTON. P. S. It is reasonably expected that this communication will find a place in all those pa pers where it has been deemed a matter of such public interest to convict me of inconsistency. The Mammoth and the City Banks.—lt is said that the U. S. Branch Bank in the city of New York, aided by the parent institution, has pushed th< local hanks for specie, for sever al weeks, with unusual urgency, and that the consequence is a pressure upon the money market and restricted die* ounts. It is not ne cessary to show that the Bank has a particular design in this, to establish the fact that it pos sesses an undue power over the local banks and over the money market ; and that it may ex ercise the one and control the other to the inju ry of the hanks and of the community. Wheth er it be the effect of its own previous over is sues, or the result cf a scheme to narrow tho means of the local banks and to add to its otva strength ; the conclusion is still inevitable, that it possesses undue and dangeious pow ers, atnl that they are liable to be wielded by passion or caprice, or for sinister objects, t<* the public in jury, if not to the ruin of individuals, It is not to be denied that the power of this institution, for evil if not for good, is very much increased by the forbearing course pursued towards it by th” general government. Indeed, it may bo said that the money of the government, against its own wishes and interests, enables the Mon opoly to oppress the local Banks, and to accom plish nearly any scheme of advantage or of ven i eance. The immense sums kept in deposito by till government, have lent it the means not only to sustain itself against the public opinion , but to carry on a war, w ith fearful odds, against the State institutions ; to cripple their means, and to restrict their ability to serve the public in seasons of pressure or of increased demand for money. It tends also to conv y the im pression that the Bank enjoys fully the confi dence of the government, and is essential to the public convenience ; and that, whatever may have been the expressions of the popular opinion nnd expectation, and however fully that opinion may hav< been responded to bv the Executive and by the representatives of the people it must be sustained, not only in its measures against the State banks, but in its means, however questionable, to procure the renewal of its charter. The whole subject merits the serious consideration of the govern, ment; for it is not easy to predict what mav he the consequences of a continuance of the present state oi’ things. A Southerner had a large shaggy Hop, of whui is commonly called the cur species, of which he gave in th*- presence of a number of persons, the following character ; ‘He’s a litth tin keenest critter you ever did see real wild eat—muscle and grizzle all over—can eat a hedge hog—dodge a thunder clap and whip any four legged animal that ever talked the earth.’ ‘IL mi. t he ascrowger,’ raid a hog-merchant present—*hu(, I’ll bet you a cool ten dollars that I’ve got an old hoar, in the field out yonder that he can’t make run, no day-’ ‘D.mc ‘.’--exclaimed the Southerner—takin out th money, which was coveted by that of the hog dilx-r. It was acold winter morning, and ‘he company had to wade tnrough the snow ere they coaid reach the old hoar. When they ar rived at the field, the animal was pointed out; he was standing passively in a corner ; and no sooner uid the dog perceive his antagonist than he seized hint by the throat and they both rolled into the snow together. “He’s a screamer; shouted the Southerner. —‘May he so,’ replied the hog driver, holding out hi-, hand for the stakes, —‘but he aim agoing to run—for he was frozen to death last night nnd dead hoars dont use their legs now a-days. —Huron Refflsctor. The bride of Aaron Burr is represented to be no less than “three score and ten years ofao-e 1 rench, rich and attractive.” A friend who has often met Mr. Burr represents him as one of the most remarkable of tnen in many rejects an octogenarian, with the activity and vivacity of ‘weuty five, and a gieat lover of works of fiction, grasping atthe last new novel with theavidit,’ of a miss in her teens. Ilis gallantry is well known, and his great good sense has. on evinc ed in the choice of a lady of an age suited to his own. Why is a Lady’s Corset like an opposition Steam Boat? D’ye give it up. Because it reduces th* Fair (fare.) AO. 18.
