The Metropolitan correspondent of the

address of Mr. Dawson :
•On Saturday tight, Mr. Andrew II. H.

give a synopsis ef the address, Ac. I will
merely say here that it ie an elegant liters
reproduction, and peculiarly appropriate to

Although the notice wes brief, end the
attention of our community divided by sev
eral assemblages of different kinds, quite a
respectable audience listened with marked
attention to tha eloquent address of A. □.

in tha MilledgeviUe correspondence of the
Augusta Constitutionalist a brief outline of
Mr. D’s lecture; and tt the following, as
we concairs, presents a most attractive fea

it to our columns. This writer ia allusion
to the Address says:
■There ere many beauties ef sentiment,
logic, and language, in this address. We
were struck with one point. He said the
Mohammedans have their national shrine of
departed greatness, where net the bones of
the great and venerated spirits of the coun

nation dwells, to be commemorated by the
oblations of devoted pilgrims—where lies the

Ti e drain of gold to ocouadd, at tho
rate of more than one million in two days,
constitutes, of course, a most serious addi
tion to the pressure in London, It must
have its limits, however, and there can be
clearly traced. The authorised note issuer
of Scotland amount to £3,087,239. Be -
yond tbit tots! not s note can be put out,
except against gold. At the last return,
the circulation was £4,051,930, being
£964,000 in excess of the fixed sum, hut
specie was held to the amount of £1,573,-
546. The uncovered paper currency was
therefore £3,477,069, and the gold sent
hence to-day and yesterday, is consequent
ly nearly equal to 50 per cent of the whole.
ConuJerabie quantities, it must be remem
bered, had been sent previously, and further
pareelj. it ir reid, will be forwarded to-mor
row, although it seems scarcely possible
that more will be required.
If the run consisted simply of the note,
holders it would be altogether improbable
that the existing supply would prove inad
equate, but depositors are contributing to
the panic, and a large number of these also
claim specie. Nevertheless, whatever may
be the demand on the Scotch banks, it is
plain their powers of drawing upon us
must be simply to the extent ot the credits
they have open, the Rank of England notes
they may be able to collect, or the funds
they can realize by sale* on the stock ex
change. On the entire deposit: which
they hold, and wbich are estimated at more
than thirty millions, only a very moderate
proportion is available in this' way, As
far as London it concerned, therefore, the
movement now uking place has no vague
terrors.
For the moment it creates a moat annoy
ing aggravation of cor trouble!, but as it
cannot go beyond a certain point, an 1 even
at the wont is not a withdrawal o! gold
from the country, the Bank of England can
meet it with a bolder manDer and with
more indifference is to the temporary effect
it may have upon their reserve than would
otherwise be the case Unfortunately the
difference between Scotch and English
law which have so long been permitted to
embarras the intercourse between the two
countries are most prominent on all finan
cial points. Bank of England notes are
nor a legal tender in Scotland, and thus
it is impossible even to lessen partially
the inconveniences of the case by sen
ding the required remittances in that form
The fact of about two thirds of
wind was routh*wvst with moderate weath
er. About 10 o'clock at night it hauled
round to tho north, and increased till 19
o'clock to a perfect hurricane, accompanied
with snow, when the beat was carried away
from the davits, and the captain ordered the
vessel by the wind. About 2 o’clock on
Thursday morning, w hile tho vessel was on
der lose reefed canvas, the fore gaff was Car
rie 1 away and the foresail split to rib
bons.
The wind about tho time veered around to
the Northwosr. and the decks and rigging
were completely coveted with ice. As tho
co'd increased it was deemed tho only safe
oourse to let the vessel run before the wind
—thosetm-n beiug completely paralysed
with cold, for the sea made clean breaches
over her, carrying away everything movea
ble on deck. About 10 o’clock tho vessel
struck about one mile Eastjof Grand Gala-
met Cre;k, and almost immediately “broke
hsr back” aud filled with water. The cap
tain and crew immediately took to the rig
ging—where they remained allday—and at
night they came down and spent the night
un tho quarter deck lashed the spare. And
what a nirlit that was to these poor ma
rines .' Every one wet to the skin—and
their clothes frozen stiff as a jointless coat
of mail—without food, fire or nourishment
of any kind—and the sea constantly break-
i: g over them—wa- it to be expected that
flesh and blood could stand that ?
Friday oruing two of the crow were
found dead—frozen stiff, and the Captain
and a seaman all but perished. About 9
o’elo 'k. the mate, Uej. Gardnor, determin
ed t“ do all in bis power to get a boat to
take the crew off liie vessel, jumped over*
boarj and swam ashore—a distance of 20
rods—and made for a shanty about a mile
and a ha.f In the wt oJa from the shore j but
when within a short distance of it, he fell
exhausted and perished. Another sailor,
Wat Bayue jumped next, on tho sarno er
rand Nobly and manfully did lie strugglo
against t 1 • e angry waters, and gained tho
shore, but it was only to lie down on the
beach within sight of tho crew in the em
brace of death.
At this juucturc all hope seemed to be
lost und tho Captain attempted to rise and
also make an effort to get ashore, but be was
so enfeebled that he only roe* aud Immedi
ately fel' back and sjaculatcd “Boya, I’m
dying-try and save your lins. Tell my "wife
that I’ve done my duty.’’ These were the
lust words 1.0 spoke. Frank Fox, our infer-
tnunl, was the next to jump overboard—
which was about hulEpast 12 o’clock, and he
was oo sooner in the water than ho saw two

he almost immediately expired. Henry
Coleman, the other survivor, arrived at the

they were taken care of. Their clothes, be

they could neither eat nor drink till' Satur

longer exposed to the elements, there is
little doubt but they also woo'd have perish
ed
been threatened. Such movements, how
ever, are more evanescent and moro easily
met then those of larger capitalists, and if
these should not take fright, the whole af
fair will probably bs of short duration, it
appears that the rate of allowance of the
Scotch banks for deposites througho :t all
the recent afivance in the money market,
has not been raised above 4 per cent., al
though the changes in the rate of discount
have ^eptpice with those of the Bank of
Englana. indeed they were recently char
ging 8J per cent, when the L ndon rate
was 8. The reasons assigned for keeping
down 'he allowance fer deposits are that
the banks are considered to offer the only
meati of icTealment approaching in tiaf-ty
to mortgages or consols, and t at as ms
former can scarcely be otiUmcd, and con-r.'s
pay a tull lower r”* of interest, 4 [ier cent,
is a sufficient temptatioc.

holders ure numeroaq many of them very
wealthy, and all of them are liable to the
last penny of their fortune for the obliga
tions of the bank, Nor is the suspension
to be attributed t] bad debts in the books of
the bank, for the insurance of the directors,
—s body of highly honorable men,—lias
seen published that this is not tbs cause,
and no losses sustained by Ihe bank have
been named that could make any impression
on tbo large paid-up capital (£1,000.0(10,
sterling) and the reserve of the bank. The
Gity of Glasgow Bank, in short has tuspem
ded because there was a ran upon it for
payment ot its deposits in gold—a demand
whioh is clearly impossible to any bank
that pays Interest on its deposits, ami the in*
ability to implement whioh at a momenta
notice does not in any degtee effect per se
tbs perfect solvency and solidity of the baok.
It 9eems to us important to point out these
circumstances, for, in addition to the mic-
coneeption which they may remove in coun
try towns where there are branches, they
will show to the admirers of tho present
banking law on the other side of iho bonier
that there is no security whatever in the is
sue of notes and equivalent basis of gold
against the most serious catastrophe whioh
car. befall n commercial community. No
case could illastrate this better than the
City of Glasgow Bank, because as wc have
■aid, its uotes, under the act of 1845, arc bass
cd almost wholly oa sovereigns.

BANE OF HAMBURG.
"We received jesterdaj ike following oo rntuu-
nication from Dr. J. W. Stokea, tbo Proiident
of tho Bank of Hamburg;
Mil. Kiutor; My attention baa boon called to
an article in vour paper of the Sod last., in
wbich you state that tbe Banks of Augusta have
refused to take the bills of the Bank of Hamburg,
South Carolina.
You will plooeedotuo tbo juitloe to insert an
extract of a letter addressed through their Secre-
Urj to tbe PresldouU of the Augusta banks ou
the 27th ultimo*
1 propose to redeem tho eircuUtion of this
bsnkp held by the Augusta banks, weekly, bj
sight exchange on Charleston at par; and when I
hare no exchange, to pay interest at the rate of
seven per cent, per annum, reciprocally with tbe
city banks, until l am in funds to aback.”
This reasonable proposition, in my judgement
they unanimously rejected, demanding of me un
conditionally, scTcn per cent, interest on bal
ances, and In consequent of my refusal to come
to their terms, they now attempt to discredit the
bills of tho Bank of Hamburg.
A discerning public will do us justice.
