The Senate resumed the consideration of
the currency resolutions offered by Mr. Ech
ols, of Walton, and Mr. Lawson, of Burke.
Mr. Branham offered the following as a
■ubstitute for Mr. Lawson’s resolutions :
It is the opinion of this Senate that Con
gress has not the Constitutional power to
charter a National Bank ; and if they have,
that it would be inexpedient to do so.
Further—lt is the opinion of this body,
that Congress lias no right to collect a re
venue beyoud the Constitutional wants of the
government; and that the flagrant violation
-Tn-r+ -n —: -’ f
reasons why the credits of the country have
been excessive, and the consequent derange
ment of the currency produced ; and if we
have one duty above another to perform at :
this time, it is to insist, that Congress may j
never again allow the revenue to exceed ihe i
Constitutional wants of the government. This |
done, and tire public monays will be easily
kept and disbursed.
How far ihe Sub-Treasury plan may be
substituted for either the special or general
deposits system, we are not prepared to sa v :
for the reason we do not know. But we are
prepared to advise the separation of the go- j
vernment from all banks; provided it can be!
effected v.dhout detriment to the commer j
cial and consequently agricultural interest of ;
the country ; and we must believe, that so !
long as the revenue is kept within its proper !
boundaries, that some system may be adopt-)
ed to effect this desirable object, either in
whole or in part.
On receiving the same, tire veas were 52,
nave 50, as follows :
Yeas—Messrs. Alexander, Anderson, Bi
vins, Black, Branham, Bryan, Calhoun, Cur

[Mr. Haralson here offered a Preamble and
Resolutions, as a substitute for Mr. Lawson’s,
declaring, in substance, that both a United

notes bv the Government, are unconstitu

Election of Governor, Spc, —The two i
branches of the General Assembly of this!
state, proceeded to-day to the election of
Governor and Lieutenant Governor lor the
ensuing two years; and at first balbtting,
the Hon. Patrick Noble, the highly respected
Senator from Abbeville, and President of the
Senate, was elected. Tits vote stood, for
Noble, 96 ; for Elmore, 53. The choice
was indeed a difficult one between such men
as Cois. Noble and Elmore, than whom the
•state has n.t two more patriotic, devoted,
and meritorious citizens ; and we venture to
say that no man voted for either, that was
not pained to vote against the other.
Dr. Thomas Smith, of Darlington District,
was elected Lieutenant Governor, at the first
| ballotting, by a majority of one vote, over
| Dr. B. K. Henagen, of Marlborough Dis
trict.
On the announcement of the election for
Governor, Col. Noble tendered to the Senate
Lis resignation as President of that body, ac
companied by appropriate remarks on the oc
casion. On his retiring, Col. Thomas Pinck
| ney was called to the Chair ; the Senate pro
ceeded to supply the vacai cy, and the Hon.
Angus Petterson, of Barnwell, was elected
President without opposition ; and on being
conducted to the Chair, expressed his sense
of the lienor cor furred on him, and the duties
and responsibilities assumed, in a very’ appro
priate, dignified and impressive address.
The Inauguration of the Governor elect
is appointed to take place on Monday* at
twelve o’clock.
GEORGIA AND MAINE CONTROVERSY.
We witnessed with great pleasure the ad
mirable move in the Senate, to-day, by the
| Hon. James Smith Rhett, the abb and esti-
I triable member from Charleston, in relation
I to ihe present controversy between Georgia
j and Maine. It is altogether a happy one—
judicious and well timed—from a source than
which none could be more desirable —and
in excellent tone and temper, as will he seen
by the preamble and resolutions themselves,
) which we publish below. We cannot doubt
j their adoption, and that unanimously. The
■subject is a most important one, and the
j cause of Georgia, the common cause of the
! whole South, which we trust will unite with
this state, in calling on that of Maine to fulfil
her solemn constitutional obligations to Geor
gia, to th“ South, and to the whole Union.
This great question must be met and decided
before long; the sooner the better for the
peace and safety of the South and the con
federacy ; and should he done at once, in the
present case, lest the successful resistance of
Maine, form a precedent for the encourage
ment of others, and this Union soon become
a rope of sand, or a shackle of iron.
Whereas, certain citizens of the state of
Maine, have been charged in the state of
Georgia, with a felony, committed therein,
bv kidnapping and carrying away certain
slaves, the property ol the citizens thereof;
and Bills of indictment have been duly found
in Georgia, against the sain persons, who are
understood to be now residents in and under
the protection of the state of Maine :
And whereas, the Governor of the state of
Georgia has, by direction of the Legislature
thereof, and according to the provisions of
the Federal Constitution, demanded of the
Governor of Maine those delinquents for
trial, under ihe said biils of indictment :
And whereas, the said Governor of the
state of Maine, instead of complying with
this demand, as under the provisions of our
national compact, he was in duty bound, has
refused so to do, stating that he must first
lay the subject before the Legislature of his
slate :
And whereas, from th . present aspect of
tbe slave question, in the United States, it no
longer becomes a slave holding state to with
on any subject involving those momentous
rights: therefore,
Resolved, That the state of Georgia, in
making the demand (or the delivery of these
j delinquents, for trial, demanded nothing but
I what Ihe strictest regard for justice, order,
respect for herself, and the most sacred pro
vision of our national compact, authorised
and required.
Resolved, That it is with the deepest con
cern we perceive one of the Chief Magis
trates of our confederated states, refusing
prompt acquiescence to this just and rightful
demand.
Resolved, That a failure on ihe part of
| the state of Maine, to fulfil her constitutional
’ obligations, in this particular, will he a fatal
blow to the security of our institutions, and
j property, and if persisted in, will create great
■and well founded alarm ir. the slaveholding
|states.
j Resolved, That the cause of Georgia is
| the cause of the whole South, and we will
j make common cause with her in all proper
m asures for procuring a redress of those
grievances, and for the maintenance of her
: and our common rights.

VERA CRUZ TAKEN.
By the French steam ship Meteor, arrived
last night in 60 hours from Vera Cruz, intelli
gence is received that the Castle of San Ju
an de Ulioa, was taken by the French fleet
after a bombardment of three hours, with a
: loss of only four men by the blockading squad
ron ; while from four to five hundred Mexi
cans were killed. In the same ship came a
messenger, who has hurried on to Washing
ton, being the In or of important despatch
es. From the C ,rier we take the following
particulars of the bombardment.
On the 27th of November, the French
Admiral, Baudin, sent word to the Mexican
General, Rincon, that he was about to attack
the Castle of San Juan de Uiloa. About two
o’clock the same day, three French frigates, a
sloop of war and two bombketches, moored
between the reef, within a gunshot of the Cas
tle; and so well directed were their bombs
and heavy artillery, that in less than four
hours they had silenced the fire of ICO pieces
of Mexican artillery, demolished all the out
works, and killed and wounded 600 men of
the Mi ,'xiran garrison.
About 6 o’clock in the afternoon of the
27ih, the Mexican commander in the Castie.
hung out a signal for the cessation of hostili
ties, and begged to be allowed time to tvith
draw his wounded from the ruins of the for-j
tificaiions. Admiral Baudin replied that he;
could consent to no truce, but tvould allow
the Mexicans to retire from the fort, if they!
capitulated. To ibis the Mexican General,
agreed, and withdrew his troops from the!
Castle, which was immediately occupied by.
; the French soldiers and marines.
The Mexican army, near Vera Cruz, was
5.000 strong; but their officers did not con
sider themselves able to hold the town, com
manded ns it was by toe guns of the Castle,
until the French Admiral conserved that one
thousand o! the Mexican Iroopsshould remain
in the city, to perserve order.
It was believed that negotiations had been
commenced between the Mexican Govern
ment and the French Admiral, lor the re-es
tablishment of peace, but some time may
elapse before the result is known.
The Freach Admiral it was thought, would
no longer hinder the vessels of ail nations
from trading to Vera Cruz.
We have hero given all the particulars
which have reached us. Os the ulterior de
signs of either th ( ’ French or Mexicans, wej
are ignorant. Time alone can tell, whether;
the Mexicans, dispirited by this, their first!
trial of strength with the French, will consent j
to patch up a pence and pay the money de-j
mantled of them ; nr whether the war will be!
; prolonged, and lead to further conquest by j
i the arms of Louis Philippe.
j North Eastern Boundary. —The National
Intelligencer of the 25th ult. states that the
| Commissioners and Engineer appointed by
: Governor Kent to explore the d.sputed terri
tory, and it’ possible, to ascertain the true
boundary line between Maine and New
Brunswick, or in other words, our Northeas
tern Boundary , arrived at the former place
on Monday last week, and that their efforts
have been crowned with complete success.
The great problem to be solved was to
ascertain the exact location of the ‘highlands’
between the waters emptying on the one side
into the river St. Lawrence, end on ihe other
into the Atlantic Ocean. The British diplo
matists have denied that there were any such
highlands in the contemplated regions. It is
stated that the Commissioners have not only
ascertained that there are such highlands, but
ttiat they rise in some places into mountains ;
and that they have moreover, discovered the
boundary line itself, as marked out by the
Commissioners under the treaty of 1783, and
all the monuments established at that time
to fix the line. If this information turns out
to be correct, a speedy and satisfactory set
tlement of this long standing question must
ensue.

MUSCOGEE FEMALE ACADEMY IN
COLUMBUS, GA.
MRS. LEIGH having resigned her charge of
this Institution, it has been commuted to ihe
general superintendence and care of the Rev. WM.
D. CAIRNS, A. M., Rector of Trinity Church in
this city, who will furnish Teachers for the severai de
partments of Instruction ; and, by a personal supervis
ion, endeavor to impart to it a character equal to any
similar Institution in the State.
The ‘J rustees tiave found it necessary, in order to
secure competent Instructors, to increase somewhat
the rates of Tuition—the charges hitherto being much
below what was customary in other Schools. They
will henceforth be.
In the Primary Department, §8 00 per quarter

“ “ Senior “ 18 00 “ “
The Primary Department will be under the immedi
ate care of Miss M. J. COOLIDGE, a lady long and !
favorably known as a teacher of children in this place.
Into this Department boys will be admitted, under 8
years of age.
Mr. A. IVERSEN, Professor of Music, from
Germany, will continue to give lessons in the Acade
my—and is confidently recommended as a genreman
of fine accomplishment; iti his profession. Provision
will be made, as soon as possible, for competent in
struction in French, Drawing, Painting, and other Or
namental Branches—for which the usual extra charges
will be made.
The full course of Instruction will embrace ail the
ordinary branches of English—even such as are taught
in the best Academies and Colleges in the country,
with the Latin and Greek Languages, whenever desir
ed ; and the object of the Trustees has been to furnish
to she daughters of Columbus every advantage which
has hitherto been sought for abroad, saving them the
sacrifice of those tender relations and that salutary dis
cipline which can be found only at home. They be
lieve a domestic education to be necessary for their
girls, and will use every exertion to furnish them with
such instruction, even at ’he paternal fireside as will
fit them for the highest relations of life, whilst it shail
unite tiie cultivation alike of its endearing charities, its
graceful accomplishments, and its purest hopes. The
intellectual and the moral faculties therefore will be
submitted to an equal training and sought lobe fully
improved under the discip ine of their School. Asa
means to litis end, montty reports will be made to Pa
rents and Guardians of ihe Scholarship and conduct
of their children and wards.
The Reverend Clergy of the different denomina
tions are constituted, with the Trustees, visiters of the
Institution, to whom its doors will always be open. Pa
rents and the public generally, will be invited to an in
spection of its progress at the stated tunes of Exami
nation, which will occur semi-annually before the short
I holiday at Christmas, and the Summer vacation in
i August.
The School will be opened on the first Monday in
January next; on which day it is particularly desired
that ai! pupils intended for the School may be punctu
ally entered, as it will great!}’ facilitate the formation
of classes, and aid the Principal in his arrangements.
Children from a distance can always be directed to
sui’able places for boarding, by application to the Prin
cipal of the School.
A< an adjunct to the Exercises of the School, and
a means of Public Improvement, a number of gentle
men have it in contemplation to deliver a course of
Lectures on Moral, Scientific and Literary subjects,
the avails of which will be appropriated to the increase
of Per Philosophical and Chemical Apparatus, and
the purchase of a Library.

_ JOHX BASCOMBB.
fjYIHTS renowned and ever memorable HORSE
Ji. will occupy his old*ta .and at the Hampton Course,
in ihe vicinity of Augusta, under my direction. Col.
Crowell, his owner, after returning from his tour
through the north, east and west, has come to the
conclusion to allow him to remain with me another
season. Applications were made in various sections
of our country ; unlimited business was guarantied;
large sums offered by various gentlemen for the ser
vice of the horse; but Col. Crowell threw aside all
minor considerations, all pecuniary motives, when on
his return he found so many solicitations, from various
quarters of the south, to allow the horse to remain
with me, that he at length yielded and gratified their
wishes. In fact Bascome has so many warm ad
mirers, that they nearly view him as their common
propery. Bascombe has attained his end in one
point, h has put to rest all those iittie, potty slanders,
relative to impotency, as lie has proven himself as sure
a f0..1-getter as any horse that stands on four feet.
His first get was dropped this season ; each and every
persons colt, in different parts of the south, is the
crack and bragcolt; in tact, for game-iike appearance,
quickness of action, sprighlliness and playfulness,
unsurpassed.
He will commence his season on the 15th of Feb
ruary next—to terminate on the 15th of July.
Terms, §IOO the season, and §1 to tne groom.—
Good lots, fine stables, pastures, and provend r, will
be provided for the mr.res ; no liability for escapes or
accidents. Persons sending mares are particularly
requested to send their pedigree, also, r.oies made pay
able to John Crowell or bearer; the expenses of the
mares to be paid before taking them away. Mares !
remaining with the Horse, will be well taken care of!
at 50 cents per day—Servants with them fed gratis. I
It is useless to mention pi digrec and performances;
Bascombe’s spe;:k for themselves; the world know I
them; his name will be handed down f.om Turfite to
Turfite; and when no more, ihe bosoms of future
sportsmen will swell with emotion and delight, when
thev hear mentioned the name s.f Bascombe.

TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD.
RANAWAY from the subscriber, living in the
town of Columbus, on the night of the lstinst.,
a negro man named JOHN. Said negro is about 25
or 26 years of age, middle sized and straight built;
weighs ICO or 170 pounds ; large under lip, and his
jaw teeth very rotten. Had on a steel mixt overcoat
and pantaloons, red speckled shirt, and a dark snutf
colored dress coat, half worn. He rode off a light
chesnut sorrel Horse, large biaze in his face, about 15j
hands high; heavy made ; one bare foot, the rest old
shoes, probably all off by this time; rode a Spanish
saddle with a black seat.
Said negro was purchased on the 14th November,
IS3S, of Neal Johnson and Alexander Johnson, of
Thomas county, Ga. He will probably make for
Thomas county or Apalachicola.
N. B. The boy can make figures and read writing,
and the probability is he can write. I have no doubt
he has free papers, either written by* himself or some
white man. The men from whom I purchased the
negro passed by the names of Neal Johnson and Alex
ander Johnson, hut 1 have reason to believe that these
names were assumed for purposes best known to them
selves. They stated that, they were raised and lived
in Thomas county, which I have since ascertained is
not the fact. The elder, Neal, is a middle sized man.
round face, large lips, intemperate, and a gambler;
about 28 or 30 j ears old. The younger, Alexander,
is quite a youth-, thin visaged and weakly looking.
They passed through Cohimhus in a one horse dear-
born wagon, and had a faro box and other gambling
implements. The above reward will be paid for the
apprehension of the above described men. and the
negro, should he be found in their possession, or the
same reward for the apprehension and delivery to me
of the negro alone. WILLIAM OWENS.
