Isught days of mv youth,
I think of thee •till
When in boyhood’s glad time,
I roamed o’er each hill;
Or chased the fleet Buck,
As he swiftly ran ;
Or cross’d the bright waters
Os my own native Dan.
I cherish the fond hope,
That yet I may see
The friends of my youth,
Who have loved thee like me;
That again I may wander
From the dull haunts of man,
Alone on the banks
Os my own native Dan.
I left thee in peace,
In the spring tide oflife;
I have seen nothing since
But sorrow and strife—
Oh! soon come the day,
When again I shall stand
On the beautiful banks
Os my own native Dan.
I’ll hail thee with joy,
And leave thee no more ;
And live as I did,
. When I knew tliee before
And when rigid death,
My lite snail command,
I’ll sleep on the banks
Os my own native Dan. W. W.
WESTERN BANK OF GEORGIA.
Rumors affecting llie standing of this insti
tution have been so current for some lime
past, that our banks arid merchants refuse to
take its notes at par. What reason exists
lbr this distrust is not mentioned, and we
would thank our friend of the Western Geor
gian to inform us. If the institution is really
unsound, the public should he informed of it;
but if, on the contrary, it is able to pay its
debts, let that be satisfactorily shown, and
confidence will he restored.— South. Manner.
VVe have purposely delayed answering the
above inquiry in order to learn something in
relation to the affairs of this institution. If
we are not mistaken, n the first of October
last this hank resumed specie payments, after
a suspension of some months,with other hanks
of the State, and had continued to pay out
specie for her hills until yesterday morning,
the 15th ult. when its doors were closed for
the present. It is thought it will again re
sume business in a short time. Holders of its
bills would do well ‘ just to fluid on,’ at least
for the present, as it is the opinion of many
that the bank will he able to redeem every
dollar.— iVestern Georgian.
Gakey’s Ferry, Feb. 14.
From Florida. —Within the last month,
thanks to the energy and |>ersevereiice of
Capts. E. S. W inder and L. .J. Beall, of the
2d Draggoons, nearly forty Indians have been
taken.
Among them a cousin of Sir Samuel
Jones, vulgo Sam ditto; they do not appear
lo.mamfest any sorrow at exchanging the
savage lbr the civilized life, and seem to show
the true spirit of philosophy. They perform
their dances for the amusement and edifica
tion of by-standers with no apparent reluc
tance and frequently indulge in a laugh them
selves.
There is a plan now on foot, which I hope
will prove the means of getting a few more of
the forest gentry into our hands. Gen. Tay
lor expects to leave Dead-man’s Bay about
the2oih inst. on an expedition into the ever
glades. He will strike east lion the bay and
meet a part of Col. Twiggs’s command, who
will leave shortly from the western coast,
about Indian river and Key Biscayen. The
steamer Isis, now chartered by the United
States, left yesterday with two companies for
Key Biscayne ; one of them Capt. Russell’s
of the 2d Infantry, the other Lieut. Geo. Tav
lor’s of the 3.1 Artillery. The whole under
the command of M tj. S. Churchill, 8J Artil
lery.
Correspondence of the New York Times.
Liverpool Cotton Market, Feb. 1.
Tlie state of trade in Manchester lias
caused a languid demand for Cotton in our
market, which, however, remains tolerably
firm, more especially as regards the finer
qualities, they having fully supported previ
ous prices, aud middling descriptions, aI- !
though they were in some instances sold at a !
depression of l-8d per lb.,wcre not generally
lower. Speculators appear to bate retired
‘lr the present both as buyers and sellers, and
the trade have barely purchased sufficient to
satisfy immediate wants; 450 Carthagena
and lif) Peruvian, were this day offered for
public sale, but no purchasers were to be met’
with. 5700 American were taken on specu
lation, ami the entire transactions comprise
19,210 bags. Extensive holders were not
pressing sales, and the opinion is more gen
erally entertained that the forthcoming crop
in America will only prove a moderate one.
Cotton Market, Feb. 5.
Since writing the above, 9000 hugs have
■changed hands at steady prices, the safes
varying from 2500 to 8500 per day, and the ‘
market closes to-day rather quietly, but.with
.every appearance of firmness. 1200 l>3los
American were taken on speculation this
jaorning.
James Madison. —Whatever relates to this
•distinguished patriot must be interesting to
every American; at least to every one who
.cherishes the Federal Constitution, the Union
of the States, and the system of representa
tive democracy under the checks and balanc
es exhibited in our State governments. We
therefore publish a beautiful extract from his
writings, quoted in a memoir of that great
.man, written by Charles J. Ingersoll, and
lately delivered before the American Philo
sophical Society. The memoir was after
wards published at tlie request of the Socie
ty. — Phil. Daily Mv.
‘ Advice to my Country. —As this advice, if
■it ever see the light, will not do it till i am no
; inore, it may be considered as issuing from
the tomb, where truth alone can be respected,
and the happiness of man alone consulted.
It will be entitled, therefore, to whatever
weight can be derived from good intentions,
and from the experience of one who has serv
ed his country in various stations through a
period of forty years, who espoused in his
youth, and adhered through his life, to the
.cause of its liberty, and who has borne a
part iu most of the great transactions which
will constitute epochs of its destiny.
The advice nearest to my heart and deep
est in ray convictions is, that the union of
the States be cherished and perpetuated.
Let the avowed enemy to it be regarded as
Pandora with her box opened, aad the dis
guised one as the Serpent creeping with his
deadly wiles into Paradise.’
Guadaloupe. —The New York American
of the 14th inst. says:—There is a distress
ing report in circulation this morning, that the
Jsiaud of Guadaloupe has sunk far below the
tide level. This effect is supposed to have
been produced by some volcanic action hav
ing a connection with tlie late earthquake at
Martinique. Guadaloupe is divided by a
creek running nearly through the centre of
the Island, one side of which is a Limestone
formation, and the other volcanic. Some
very celebrated plantations, with extensive
buildings, once of jjreat value, are said to be
completely submerged.— Savannah Georgian.
A ncio Boundary Dispute. —The Boston

put in a claim to a large slice of the territory
of Massachusetts, on the southern border of
the State, and has carried her demand before

WA*itni row, January 50, 1839.
THE special commissioner appointed to investi
gate the validity of tne assents of certain Creek
Indians to the contract made between Gen. Jesup. J.
C. \\ aisen & Cos. anti certain chiefs of the Cit-ck
nation, and to adjudicate uimui ihe claims w inch may
be set up, eittier under or averse to tnat contract, has
adopted the following regulations for the government
of the proceedings before him.
1. i'he memorials of ail the persons claiming ad
verse to that contract having been received, four
months from the gStli mst. are allowed for the respec
tive parlies to prouuce ilieir pioofs, and submit iluur
arguments. Af.er that period, no evidence will he re
ceived, and it is expected that the arguments will be
.submitted within the same period, but they will be
received at any time before the tinal decision upon the
case.to which they refer.
2. The proof shall be in the form of written depo
sition*, signed bv the witness, and taken before an oiii
cer aut .orized by law to take affidavits.
3. There shall also be transmitted a certificate ol
the proper officer, that the magistrate taking the depo
sition is the otficer he purpor ts to be ; but tins rule
may be dispensed with in cases where both parties ap
pear at the same tune before the magistrate.
4. No depositions wih be received unless the follow
ing conditions be complied with : Due notice of the
examination of any witness shall be given to the ad
veise party. In case the witness is to be examined
east of the Mississippi and within 100 miles of the
residence of the party upon whom the notice shall be
serx-ed, fifteen days’ notice will be required; in all
other cases, thirty days’ notice. Such notice shah be
in writing, and shall contain the name of the witness
to be examined, the description of the reserve to
which th testimony is to be applicable, the names of
the parlies claiming the same, and the time and place
at which the examination is to be taken.
Ihe notice must be served on someone of the par
ties inteiested, by delivering the same to him personal
ly i or . in case of his absence, by leaving a copy there
of with some person of suitable age and discretion,
at his residence. In case sucli service he impractica
ble, and the commissioner shall be satisfied thereof;
or, in case the opposite party be absent front the S ate,
the notice must he published, for three successive
weeks, in two newspapers printed nearest to the valid
in question. In all cases, the proper evidence of ser
vice, verified by oath, or publication of the notice, or
the written admission of the opposite party, must be
attached to the original depositions, and be transmit
ted with them.
o. When testimony shall be taken in the Creek
country west of the Mississippi, it may be taken be
fore the United States agent for the Creek Indians.
6. The original depositions, with the notice of ex
amination and evidence of service thereof, will in all
instances be, bv the magistrate taking the same, en
closed in a sealed envelope, with his name signed
aero s the seal, and bo directed to the Commissioner
of Indian Affairs, Washington, and transmitted by
mail. *
7. In all cases of claims adverse lo the Watson
contract, the claimant will, wnh his notice of theex
amin aion of witnesses, serve a true abstract of the
bond or contract under which he claims, specifying the
name of the reservee, the date of the contract, a de
scription of the reserve claimed, the consideration
money or price, and the names of the witnesses to the
contract.
8. In many instances, the memorials are filed with
out specifying the names of all the parties interested
in the several claims. It is necessary that a more
particular designation of the claimants be made. They
will therefore amend their memorials in this respect,
or file such designation as supplemental thereto, with
in four months from the date thereof; but the notice of
such amendment, specifying it, shall be given to the
opposite party within thirty days from this date.
9. In all eases of claims in the name or on behalf of
the original reservee, with (lie notice of tile examina
tion of witnesses will also be served a true copy of the
power of attorney and its attestation, under which the
claim will be asserted before the commissioner, and
the original power will be exhibited at the time of ex
amination, and be filed before the special commission
er within four months from this dale, an 1 a true cony
thereof be filed with him within two months from this
date.
10. It is desirable that the depositions and the argu
ments thereon be transmitted directly upon their being
taken, so that the special commissioner may have an
opportunity of examining and deciding upon them
without delay.
11. It is not intended that the magistrates before
whom the depositions shall betaken, shall pass upon
questions of legality or admissibility of testimony. All
objections of that character will be made at the time
of the examination, and be noted by the magistrate in
the depositions, and the questions be reserved for the
decision of the special commissioner.
12. Thejsecretary will cause copies of these regu
lations to be served without dela on each of the coun
sel, and the same to be published for six successive
weeks in the Washington Globe, the Sentinel, at Co
lumbus, Geo., Ihe Montgomery Advertiser, Montgom
ery, Ala , and the Sentinel, Wetumpka, Ala., and also
a copy of the SiKie transmitted to each of the claim
ants who has filed a merfioi'ial.- ___
