SENTINEL & HERALD. COLUMB US, JULY 5, 1838. UNION CONGRESSIONAL TICKET. ROBERT VV. POOLER, of Chatham. JOSIAH S. PATTERSON, of Early. ALFRED IVERSON, of Muscogee. DAVID CAMPBELL, of Bibb. JUNIUS HILLVER, of Clark. CHARLES H. NELSON, of Cherokee. B. GRAVES, of Newton. J. G. McWHORTER, of Richmond. SUB-TREASURY —MR. CAMBRELENG’S BILL. Well —this great and important bill has, after so long a lime, been lost, on its passage to a third reading, by a vote of 125 to 111. The first duty to our readers, is to show them how their representatives upon this question. Messrs. Glascock, Haynes, llolsey, Owens, Cleveland and Towns, voted for the bill, and Messrs. Dawson and Grant land voted against it! and JABEZ JACK SON did not vote at all!!! Through his particular friend, Mr. Grantland, he begged the House to excuse him from voting, which quasi course the House would not permit him to follow. When the vote was taken, how ever, Jabez came up missing—about that time he eliminated! We fancy that we see this cypher of an honorable sneaking out of the back door of the Capitol of his country, leaving no trace of hm unworthy footsteps behind him— calling at the refectory for a potation with which to wash down a choking conscience and then sliding off’ to some secure retrear, where the withering glance of an independent Georgian might not fall upon him! While we must disapprove the course ta ken by Messrs. Dawson and Grantland, in thus voting against the known will of those whom they have attempted to represent; yet in their open and manly opposition there is Home what to admire—for independence, afier all, is a rare and beautiful jewel. But the picture of a man hailing from a State which lives high in the ascendant upon the princi ples of its noble and undaunted freedom of thought, and independence of action, refusing to vote either for or against a cardinal mea sure of the administration to which he has acknowledged his devotion, is too disgusting for the eye of a freeman and patriot to gaze upon; and such an act throws the broad mantle of disgrace all over a zealous and chivalrous people, who have been thus abu sed and insulted by one, who in disgracing bis friends, has disgusted his enemies! We presume the honorable gentleman forgot his duty to his constituents, in the all-absorbing enquiry, which we are told, by those who know him best, is eternally rolling across his mind with the speed of c. locomotive, Cui bono? Cui bono? If there be one duty, which the people of Georgia more particu larly owe to themselves than another, it is to ask the aforesaid Jabez Jackson to come home by steam, there being no other mode of trans portation of sufficient celerity to gratify their wishes. Come home Jabez—Jabez the slimi nate—Jabez the great Latin enquirer. OCS” Note Dictionarial: To eliminate, from the Latin verb elimino, means, according to Lovelace, ‘to put out of doors.’ We think that Mr. Jackson should have had the full benefit of the literal translation of his favorite phrase, on the late occasion to which we have above adverted. We regret that he was permitted ‘ to eliminate’ himself. But turn we to higher topics of discussion. The measure which has been defeated, was unquestionably the very best which could have been devised for the country in its pre- sent condition. It had for its primary object the disseverance of the General Government from the banking system and influence of the States. Will any man deny the policy of this measure? If we would have a sound and uniform currency—one universally recei ved at home and highly respected abroad— we must base it upon the legitimate and in dependent credit of the government itself, and not upon the ephemeral credit of State banks, local institutions, reputedly good to-day, noto riously bankrupt to-morrow. Congress is divided into two great parties, the one sup porting and the other opposing the present administration. The great majority of the friends of Mr. Van Buren voted for the Sub- Treasury hill—they counted one hundred and eleven; some twelve or fourteen conserva tives, so called—(a party which holds the balance of power, and which defeats every prominent and wise measure of the adminis tration)—professedly friendly to the adminis tration, but opposed to the Sub-Treasury, voted with the opposition and defeated the bill. The same party laid upon the table the bill from the Senate which provided for the receipt of the notes of specie paying banks, of which Mr. Calhoun was the father. The bill of which we are now speaking, (Mr. Cambreleng’s) embraced what is familiarly called the specie clause. On the 25th ultimo the sense of the House was taken on the special deposite system, and but seventy members voted in favor of that measure; so that we discover that the great majority of the republican party will not sustain anv measure which does not confide the manage ment of the public monies to public officers, independently of the State Banks. There fore the session is rapidly approaching to a close, and there is ro probability of any finance measure being passed. The Trea sury notes will continue to form the circula ting medium of the Government, and the law of 1826 will come into force, requiring that the government deposites shall be made in the nearest specie paying bank. We hardly know where such Bank will be found, since the Specie Circular last put forth does not allow government funds to be deposited in those banks which have issued notes of a less denomination than five dollars, and pretty much all the banks are vomiting forth their shin-plasters. It has been said that * upon the groat question of a Constitutional Independent Trea sury we must go to the country; we must appeal to the people.’ Yes, so say we. The ballot-box must decide between a National Bank and the Sub-Treasury scheme —be- tween an institution which might start up with modesty enough, and progress with seeming caution, prudence and safety, but which, when grasped and wielded by ambi tion, would shoot up its thousand Hydra heads, and sway its sceptre of unlawful and dangerous power; or a system of conducting the aflairs of Government, or disbursing jts funds, the safely and security of which would lie in the appointment to office of men of in tegrity, honesty and responsibility—the remo val of the public- money from the influence of monopolies and shave-shops inappropriately styled banks, and thus sustaining the high character and resources of the government by casting it upon its own resources of public faith and virtue. The question must now come directly up before the people. Let the battle commence. We are ready for the onslaught. INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT. The public mind in Georgia is aroused, awakened, and active upon this subject. Nor will it be suffered again to slumber. Men of talents, of energy, and of ample means, have investigated the subject, have Wnm# fully convinced of the practicability and facility of building roads and cutting canals in the South—of the incalculable benefit which will accrue therefrom to Southern commerce, agri culture, manufactures, and mechanics ; and of the immense stream of wealth which would continually pour itself into the Treasury of each State; and these men are determined to exhaust their resources of all kinds, and to spend and be spent, in the great, glorious, and patriotic cause of Internal Improvement. No stronger incitement, no example more powerful need be wanted by such individuals, than the undying reputation left behind him by Be Witt Clinton. Statesmen and orators, scholars and poets, may climb the rugged steep of fame, but none will stand upon its summit more proudly acknowledged, by civi lization and improvement, than him, whose genius lifted the flood-gates of wealth upon his native State, and poured into her lap in exhaustible treasures. Thomas Butler King, Esq. a gentleman who has devoted a great deal of time and attention to this subject, and who is well read in the improvements of the day, and full of ihe spirit which prompts them, favored ug with a visit last week, and delivered an ad dress with which we were pleased, as dis playing a vast deal of information, with re gard not only to what had been accomplished, but what is now doing and may yet be done, for the benefit of Georgia and the South generally. We would most cheerfully devote a larger space to this interesting and important sub ject, but we are crowded with advertisements, and necessarily compelled to curtail our edi torial. In closing this article, we beg leave to add a few words which on a previous occasion we addressed to our readers: ‘ Whether our State shall live and flourish, or whether she shall languish and die, un doubtedly depends upon the progress of that great system of Internal Improvement already begun. Shall it be fostered, sustained, and enenuraged, or shall it be abandoned ? We trust that, hereafter, this question will he car ried up 1o the ballot-box, throughout the State, and there let the voice of independent freemen speak new life into the system of Internal Improvement, and bid it go on pros pering and 10 prosper.’ The United States Magazine and De mocratic Revieiv. —This work is published monthly, at Washington City, by Langtree and O’Sullivan. It sustains with much ability the Democratic Republican principles of our government, and is, politically, a work, we think, calculated to be eminently useful. In a literary point of view it also ranks high. The number for June is more than usually entertaining. Amongst its numerous and valuable contents, a few articles have spe cially arrested our attention : The first arti cle, entitled ‘ the Resumption of Specie Pay ments,’ is particularly worthy of notice. The ‘Altar of Fashion,’ by the author of ‘ the Dutchman’s Fireside,’ ‘Westward Ho,’ See. is a highly interesting article, written in the finest style of the present accomplished Se sretary of the Navy. ‘Political Portraits with pen and pencil,’ No. 7, contains a tolerable likeness of the Hon. John Forsyth, together with a short biographical sketch of the life and history of this eminent statesman and brilliant orator, the present highly distinguished Secretary of State, which biography we design to place in our columns as soon as convenient. W® wish the publishers of the Democratic Review great success in the promulgation of the sound and sterling principles of ’76, ’9B, and ’3B, and may their efforts in the great cause of mental freedom impart a fresh and powerful impulse to the spirit of patriotism. 4 The Baltimore Monument : a weekly Journal, devoted to polite Literature, Sci ence and the Fine Arts. 5 This interesting Journal has visited us re gularly, for several months past, and we have failed to notice the pleasure derived from our interviews with its well-stored columns, for which we crave pardon of the talented con ductors. It is a magazine of more than or dinary merit, and we are proud to number it with our most chaste and elegant exchange. The motion to reconsider the Independent Treasury Bill was lost. The vote stood, yeas 21, nays 205. Internal Improvement. —The great high way to a nation’s prosperity and distinction. •Nullification. —A plant which shoots up in the hour of excitement—its foliage withers and dies in these * piping times of peace.’ We have comfortable times here, clear I moonlight nights, cool sea breezes, water melons and green corn, corrected by some of the finest iced juleps that are made south of the old dominion. Our flea-bitten, dispirited neighbors from Apalachicola, ride over daily to taste these luxuries and inhale ihe pure wind that has kissed a thousand waves. Poor souls ! they are weak, and pant like a tempest tired bird, when they come among us, but it only requires a few days residence to reinvi gorate their exhausted frames—and we send them back as fresh and fanciful as mountain sprites.— St. Joseph Times. Oh ! massa Peter! Oh! Doctor, what an infernal dose! 4 Moonlight nights, cool sea breezes, water melons and green corn, cor rected by ice jalaps' 1 !!! Any other man be side the aforesaid etherial editor would die in the wink of a cat’s eye after swallowing such a compound. What’s the matter, do the fleas bite you? No, pshaw upon the fleas, I’ve got the St. Joseph cholic— breezes, melons, green corn Ice Jclaps ! Oh ! oh !! oh !!!—run for Dr. S 1, I shall take another Jalap.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, I Monday, June 25, 1838. 5 EVENING SESSION. The House convened at half-past three o’clock, and went into Committee of the Whole, Mr. Connor in the chair, on the TREASURY BILL. The question pending being on the motion of Mr. Garland of Virginia, to strike out the enacting clause, Mr. llhett, who was entitled to the floor, addressed the committee at length in support of the bill. The question was then taken, and the vote was, ayes 92, noes 86. On motion of Mr. Cambreleng, the com mittee then rose and reported the bill, stri king out the enacting clause. Mr. Williams of Kentucky then rose, and said he thought this bill had been discussed long enough, and in order, therefore, to bring the House to a vote, whether this bill should be rejected or not, he demanded the previous question. Mr. Wise moved a call of the House, which was ordered, and proceeded in. The following gentlemen were excused on account of ill health : Mr, Bruyn, on motion of Mr. Gray. Mr. Coffey, on motion of Mr. E. Whittle sey. Mr. Curtis, on motion of Mr. Fillmore. Mr. Loomis, on motion of Mr. Birdsall. Mr. Murray, on motion of Mr. Southgate. The House refused to excuse Mr. Jackson of Georgia, Mr. Grantland having made an ineffectual motion to that effect. The Clerk was then directed to make out a list of the absentees, and furnish to the officers, in order to notify the absent members at their lodgings. Several gentlemen sug gested that those members in attendance in the galleries and lobbies be permitted to en ter ; but others objecting, the Chair said it could only be done by unanimous consent. Pending this stage, however, the officers let all in who were at the doors on their own responsibility, whose names were afterwards disclosed, and among them were some of those who had been excused. The only members then absent were Ihe following: Messrs. Bruvn, Carter, Jackson of Georgia, Morgan. Ogle, and Murray. Mr. Williams of Kentucky moved to dis pense further with the call. Mr. Connor asked for the yeas and nays; which being ordered, Mr. Williams withdrew his motion ; and Mr. Childs renewed it, as did Mr. Connor the call for the yeas and nays; which were again ordered. At this stage, Mr. Murray and Mr. Mor gan came into the hall, leaving then but four absentees. The House dispensed with the call —yeas 117, nays 104. At this stage Mr. Carter and Mr. Ogle appeared, the only absentees being Mr. Bru in and Mr. Jabez Jackson. The question then recurred upon the de mand for the previous question, when Mr. Campbell of South Carolina appealed to the mover to withdraw it, and permit the question to be taken on the distinct proposi tions. Mr. Williams declined. The previous question was then seconded bv more than a majority of the whole House, viz. ayes 127. Mr. Cushman then asked for the yeas and nays on ordering the main question, but sub sequently withdrew the request, and Mr. Bronson renewed it; but they were not ordered, and the main question was or dered without a division. The main question, being on ordering the bill to a third reading, was then propounded, and thereon, Mr. Cambreleng asked for the yeas and nays; which were ordered, and were —yeas 111, nays 125, as follows: Yeas — Messrs. Anderson, Andrews, Ather ton, Banks, Beatty, Beirne, Bicknell, Birdsall, Boon, Bou'ldin, Brodhead, Bronson, Buchan an, Bynum, Cambreleng, Chaney, Chapman, Cleveland, Clownev, Coles, Connor, Craig, Crary, Cushman, Davee, DeGraff, Drom goole, Duncan, Elmore, Farrington, Fairfield, Isaac Flelcher, Fry, Gallup, Glascock, Grant, Gray, Griffin, Haley, Hammond, Hamer, Harrison, Hawkins, Haynes, Holsey, Holt, Howard, Hublev, William H.
